No, on further reflection you are right. I learned a new trick out of
it. When
declaring a class, I sometimes declare member functions that I
anticipate i'll need. 
I've always assumed that I had to stub them out in the definition file,
but that 
isn't the case.

I will admit I prefer to know about unused variables. I tend to leave a
few strays
when I restructure a function that I would as soon clean up. Personal
tastes. I guess
thats why there are more -W switches than my fading brain can ever
remember.
