The code below results in an incorrect warning.  If the "break" statement is
removed, the warning disappears.  The C compiler does not issue the warning for
both programs.

#include <stdlib.h>
// Imports: extern void abort (void) throw () __attribute__ ((__noreturn__));

inline unsigned
convert_watch(int w)
{
  switch (w) {
    case 0:
      return 0;
      // Deleting the following line suppresses the warning.
      break;
    default:
      abort();
  }
}

extern void foo(unsigned);

void
add_fd(int w, int* fdh)
{
  unsigned u = convert_watch(w); // warning: "may reach end..."
  foo(u);                       // silence unused warning
}
