Hm... it appears that I was wrong about this. It appears that this is the intended feature in gcc:

Yuck!  Madness!


Regardless, I don't think we should have this warning enabled. We're generating some unused code everywhere :(

:-(

Yes, we could say that the warning is disabled in gcc and enabled in clang. I'm not sure that's fair, though. We do all sorts of strange things to silence clang sometimes; it's only fair that once in a while we do things to silence gcc. So unless we say that WebKit should only be developed on clang, we should probably agree to sometimes silence gcc's peculiarities.

Since it is not a compiler bug, I agree we should accommodate for this behavior.
