OK, although one problem with turning "-Wno-unused" off is that a *lot*
of warning start coming out, so that legitimate warnings might get lost.

I'm inclined not to turn "-Wno-unused" off until the next release comes
out (i.e., still have "-Wno-unused" in the top-level configure script in
the next release).
