The Sun C compiler doesn't allow you to return a value from a void

...and MSVC++ allows it but warns about it. That fix has already been checked in.
(Is there some way to convince GCC to warn about that, and C++-style comments, without
1) turning off other GCC extensions that we use safely, such as some of the __attribute__ stuff 

or

	2) turning off extensions that the native system header files require?)
