No, you ALWAYS return values.  They're just random unless you put an
explicit "return (0)" etc from main.  (I'm only talking about
main BTW).

PW> if some sort of critical error occurs.  BTW 
PW> why would exit() cause a warning?

Because the compiler is expecting to see a return from main (a function
which returns int), and all it sees is a a function call, no return. BFN.
