[Python-Dev] Unreachable code in mmapmodule.c?

[Jeroen Ruigrok van der Werven]

Reading through Modules/mmapmodule.c to work on some documentation I
encountered this:

  24 #ifndef MS_WINDOWS
  25 #define UNIX
  26 #endif

 536 #ifdef MS_WINDOWS
 537         return PyInt_FromLong((long) FlushViewOfFile(self->data+offset, siz     e));
 538 #elif defined(UNIX)
 539         /* XXX semantics of return value? */
 540         /* XXX flags for msync? */
 541         if (-1 == msync(self->data + offset, size, MS_SYNC)) {
 542                 PyErr_SetFromErrno(mmap_module_error);
 543                 return NULL;
 544         }
 545         return PyInt_FromLong(0);
 546 #else
 547         PyErr_SetString(PyExc_ValueError, "flush not supported on this syst     em");
 548         return NULL;
 549 #endif

The #else will never be reached, unless I read it wrongly?
