I tried removing it. It works fine with gcc and clang. You can see the
build on travis-CI[1]. I am not sure of other compilers and also don't
know a way to test it either. You could use my branch on github[2] if
you want to test it on other compilers. I think its better to keep the
return 0 if we aren't sure whether it would work on every compiler.
