Well, the warning is explicitly put in there for this specific function because you are supposed to process the return value. I'm sure a more smarter compiler would even warn "variable is assigned a value that is never used". ;-) (Note that gcc in general doesn't work about unused return values, only for those functions that glibc explicitly marks as candidates.)
