I spent a couple more hours doing more winsup cleanup, this time
building with -Wall -Wshadow.  I think I probably eliminated about 90%
of the warnings although some remain.

There are still a couple of stupid single-letter variables that need
to be renamed at some point (like s and u).

Here are a few remaining issues I have questions about:

1) Anyone know how to fix the following message followed by many more
of the same?

	/home/noer/src/devo/comp-tools/devo/winsup/console.cc:1220: warning:
	aggregate has a partly bracketed initializer

I understand what the warning means in this context -- we aren't
explicit enough about how the chars are assigned to the char[4]
element of the struct.  But I'm not sure how to fix it other than by
stopping statically initializing the struct.

2) In tty.cc, gcc claims that class tty * ttyp is an unused
variable in fhandler_tty_slave::close().  What needs to change here,
if anything?

3) In exceptions.cc,

	/home/noer/src/devo/comp-tools/devo/winsup/exceptions.cc: At top
	level:
	/home/noer/src/devo/comp-tools/devo/winsup/exceptions.cc:370: warning:
	`unsigned int rethere' defined but not used

Is this really the case?  Or is _rethere that's mentioned in the asm
section refering to the global rethere?
