cc -O2  -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-prototypes -Wpointer-arith -Werror   -I. -I/usr/src/distrib/utils/sysinst/arch/i386/../.. -I/usr/src/distrib/utils/sysinst/arch/i386  -DREL=\"1.4D\" -DMACH=\"i386\" -c /usr/src/distrib/utils/sysinst/arch/i386/../../main.c
/usr/src/distrib/utils/sysinst/arch/i386/../../main.c: In function `main':
/usr/src/distrib/utils/sysinst/arch/i386/../../main.c:127: void value not ignored as it ought to be

main.c:127:
        if (msg_window(win) != 0) {

The only declaration of msg_window I can find is in arch/i386/msg_defs.h:
void msg_window(WINDOW *window);

What do other archs do?
>How-To-Repeat:
	
>Fix:
Unsure, especially given comment in main.c just before:

         * XXX the following is bogus.  if screen is too small, message
         * XXX window will be overwritten by menus.

I'm just changing the routine in arch/i386/msg_defs.c to

int msg_window(WINDOW *window)
{
        msg_win = window;
	return 0;
}

with corresponding change in msg_defs.h
