 hi,
 i decided to rebuild on cvs today, and although it did build, the
 compilation gave me loads of warnings, and since i was really bored, i
 took a look at them.
 while i fixed (what i call 'fix' ... ;) some of them and produce some
 patches, the dozens others remain and i cannot fix them because i don;'t
 understand them, they seem plain wrong. 
...
 those i could fix were some with unused variables (forgotten somehow)

gcc isn't very good in diagnosing if a variable is really used
unitialized or not.  Too often the warning is wrong.  That's a known
'feature' of gcc:-(.
