IMO, this is pretty ugly, it causes the brain to screech to a halt when
you see it.  Why not just add an unconditional __unused to the
functions?  The unused attribute is defined as marking the variable as
"potentially unused" -- there is no penalty for having it there and
then actually using the variable.


I understand, (and I have significant tendency to agree) but I did not find more correct way how to do it. Are you sure that __unused is defined as *potentially* unused? I cannot find nothing about this and you known how are compiler guys creative with generating of new warnings... I known that C++17 have 'maybe_unused' attribute, but relationship to standard '__unused' looks unclear.

In any case, I have not single problem to change this to the proposed style if we found that this is the optimal way.
