Various lint checkers complain when return values are ignored. This is
a useful feature for system calls (e.g., not checking to see if stat()
succeeded). For *printf(), though, it's generally a nuisance.
I'm not sure what the state is of various linters, but I belive that
Gimpel's FlexeLint has options for turning this off on a per-function basis.
