COMPILATION-BUG-1, encountered while executing: 'make bzImage'

/opt/gcc304a/bin/gcc -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/linux-2.5.14/include -Wall
-Wstrict-prototypes -Wno-trigraphs -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer
-fno-strict-aliasing -fno-common -pipe -mpreferred-stack-boundary=2
-march=athlon -DKBUILD_BASENAME=dev -c -o dev.o dev.c
dev.c: In function `netif_receive_skb':
dev.c:1465: void value not ignored as it ought to be
dev.c:1465: ret = handle_diverter(skb);

REASON-WHY-1:
in file 'net/core/dev.c' lines 1418 and 1465 are in contradiction with each
other:
.......................
1417: #ifdef CONFIG_NET_DIVERT
1418: static inline void handle_diverter(struct sk_buff *skb)
........................
1463: #ifdef CONFIG_NET_DIVERT
1464: if (skb->dev->divert && skb->dev->divert->divert)
1465: ret = handle_diverter(skb);
........................

PROPOSED-SOLUTION-1: changing line 1465 to:
......................
1465 { handle_diverter(skb); ret=0; }
