Compiler Warning with -Wunreachable-code

Hi,

On compiling my code with flag -Wunreachable-code, I'm getting compiler warnings
../source/XmlFile.cpp:203: warning: will never be executed

Line 203 reads
throw XmlException("XmlFile::BLAH!!!");

This exception is thrown explicitly and obviously works !!

I'm using
$ gcc --version
gcc (GCC) 4.2.1

on debian Linux
$ uname -a
Linux H00001 2.6.26-1-686 #1 SMP Sat Jan 10 18:29:31 UTC 2009 i686 GNU/Linux

Compiler bug or am I just imagining things?

Regards
Ishdeep

g-ir-compiler

g-ir-compiler(1)					      General Commands Manual						  g-ir-compiler(1)

NAME

       g-ir-compiler - typelib compiler.

SYNOPSIS

       g-ir-compiler [OPTION...] GIRFILE

DESCRIPTION

       g-ir-compiler  converts	one  or  more GIR files into one or more typelib.  It can either emit the raw typelib blob (default behavior) or C
       code (--code). The output will be written to standard output unless the --output is specified.

OPTIONS

       ---help
	      Show help options

	---code
	      Emit C code which is suitable for including in a shared library instead of a raw typelib.

	---output=FILENAME
	      Save the resulting output in FILENAME.

       ---verbose
	      Show verbose messages

       ---debug
	      Show debug messages

       ---no-init
	      Do not include an initialization snippet to register the typelib in the respository. This can only be used if --code is also  speci-
	      fied.

       ---includedir=DIRECTORY
	      Adds a directory which will be used to find includes inside the GIR format.

       ---module=MODULE
	      FIXME

       ---shared-library=FILENAME
	      Specifies  the shared library where the symbols in the typelib can be found.  The name of the library should not contain the leading
	      lib prefix nor the ending shared library suffix.
