Actually it doesn't emit a warning.

If you recall my problem a few weeks ago with:

- (float) position;

vs.

- (int) position;

the compiler sailed blithely on without a mention, generating code that smashed the stack to pieces.

This is different from the situation that does emit a warning, where the method is completely unknown and is assumed to return type 'id'. I do compile with many additional warnings, but I haven't found one that picks up this problem.

If it finds more than one method, and the return types differ, then the situation is ambiguous … so it emits a warning
