Beyond what's stated in "gnulib/lib/ignore-value.h"?
Not sure how much more can be said - it does what it says it does -
ignores the return value. For instance, if there's a function that is
returning either NULL or some strdup'd string and will check and error
based off the return, then you have:
ignore_value(VIR_STRDUP(target, source));
return target;
What would be the point of indicating the VIR_STRDUP failed, then
returning to the caller and having it produce a different error message?
