I'm having a problem with unused parameters.  This code:
char **__crt0_glob_function (__attribute__((unused)) char * _argument)
{return 0;}
void   __crt0_load_environment_file(__attribute__((unused)) char *_app_name)
{}

Produces this output: when run through gxx with "-W -Wall" switches:
Lemur.cc:14: warning: `unused' attribute ignored
Lemur.cc: In function `char ** __crt0_glob_function(char *)':
Lemur.cc:14: warning: unused parameter `char * _argument'
Lemur.cc: At top level:
Lemur.cc:15: warning: `unused' attribute ignored
Lemur.cc: In function `void __crt0_load_environment_file(char *)':
Lemur.cc:15: warning: unused parameter `char * _app_name'

Can somebody tell me what I'm doing wrong, or what I have to fix to make
gcc/gxx ignore an unused parameter?
