The answer is: yes it has [-Wunused-result]

src/providers/ipa/selinux_child.c: In function 'main':
src/providers/ipa/selinux_child.c:223:15: warning: ignoring return value of 
'setuid', declared with attribute warn_unused_result [-Wunused-result]
         setuid(0);
               ^
src/providers/ipa/selinux_child.c:227:15: warning: ignoring return value of 
'setgid', declared with attribute warn_unused_result [-Wunused-result]
         setgid(0);
               ^
