    This takes me back in time, to c. 1982 when I got curious about how computers calculated trig functions. Luckily I was using one of the first OSS systems (modulo AT&T lawyers): Unix V7. So I pulled up the source and took a look. You can still see it here: https://github.com/v7unix/v7unix/blob/master/v7/usr/src/libm...

    It's what historic Unix did: https://github.com/v7unix/v7unix/blob/master/v7/usr/src/libc...

    Why it did that? I'm not sure, but at the time C did not have 'void' functions: every function returned a value. They probably wanted to make the behavior of the stdlib functions deterministic, even if the return value was useless and undocumented.

    See the V7 Unix source for sbrk here.
