The following might be clearer than doing the workaround in-place

#define ignore_retval(x) do { long __r; __r = (long)(x); } while (0)

How is a custom wrapper clearer than (void), which is generally
recognized as intentionally ignoring the return value?

Good point, except that casting the result to void does not avoid the warning/error in this particular case so we have to pick a less attractive workaround.
