--- Comment #5 from Dlang Bot <dlang-bot at dlang.rocks> ---
dlang/dmd pull request #13149 "merge stable" was merged into master:
- 0fabd110dd146eaf868e1195e9bff172d3c9ba1c by Florian:
Issue 22004 - Allow noreturn returns from void functions (#13135)
This is valid because
- `noreturn` is convertible to any type (incl. `void`)
- the program will abort/throw while evaluating the expression and hence
never actually return a value
This means that the `ReturnStatement` can be replaced by the standalone
expression without changing the behaviour of the program.
---
Doesn't fix 22004 because the supplied example requires further changes
to accomodate for `return <noreturn>;` and subsequent `return;`'s during
the return type inference.
