It should be an error, but I don't even get a warning when I forget to return self in an initializer. For example:

- (id)init
{
[super init];
/* Initialize member variables. */
/* Oops, I forgot to return self! */
}

For me, GCC automatically warns me if a function that has a return type doesn't call "return" in one of its execution branches. Maybe you'll just have to turn that warning you turned off in xCode back on. There are flags for each warning, so at worst you could just add the appropriate -Wsomething flag to the additional compiler flags of your project.
