This is quite ugly. :)

Suppressing the error isn't useful.
The code is already handling cleanup in error cases, and I don't think checking the result of chdir would be useful here.
Why not just fail with the appropriate test result, if chdir() fails here, instead of making a bit of a mess with odd void casts to a negated return value, and a reference to a compiler bug report?
Really, Shuah is putting you on the right path here.
Ha. I didn't ask to suppress the error with the cast. I asked to check the return and fail.
Sorry John. I didn't read it correctly the first time. I probably go get more coffee. :)
