This is to fix a newly-discovered subtle bug, following #1626. Essentially for
Unitfunctions without areturnstatement, we add a return statement at the end so that it is not rewritten into an infinitewhileloop. We assumed before that all functions have body wrapped in aBlockobject, but actually this may not be the case.(Interestingly, we didn’t change any test case, and it was not an issue on our x86/64 laptops and on CI (function bodies were always wrapped in
Blocks). But I accidentally got an issue when I was testing things on a different Mac with Apple Silicon (ARM architecture), where sometimes if the function has, say, only anIfstatement, the body will simply be thatIfobject instead of thatIfwrapped inside aBlockobject.)
