Bug 23063 – It is possible to return a noreturn value

noreturn func() { noreturn a; return a; } void main() { func(); } This code compiles and runs succefully, despite the dip [1] explicitly stating: "Defining a noreturn variable with no initialization expression generates an assert(0) only if the variable is accessed, which can be useful in generic code where unused noreturn variables may be declared. Generating the assert(0) as soon as the variable is live in these cases could prematurely end the program." This currently blocks: https://github.com/dlang/dmd/pull/12898 [1] https://github.com/dlang/DIPs/blob/master/DIPs/accepted/DIP1034.md
