7628,[signals2] Noisy g++ warning generated by 'unused' parameter,boost@…,Frank Mori Hess,"An unused parameter (args) warning in .../signals2/details/variadic_slot_invoker.hpp:87

I'm seeing the warning with g++ 4.6 for Linux x86 and g++ 4.5 for Linux Arm.  Not tried with 4.7.

This may be an over-zealous compiler, but it would be nice if it could be suppressed because it generates a lot of noise.

Perhaps a:

{{{
#if BOOST_WORKAROUND(__GNUC__, <= 4) && BOOST_WORKAROUND(__GNUC_MINOR__, <= 6)
          static_cast<void>(args);
#endif
}}}


Here's the noise generated (g++ 4.6):

(-std=c++0x -O2 -Wall -W)
