On this expression:

        (true ? "a" : "b")[index()]

"g++ -Wunused-value" incorrectly produces

        warning: left operand of comma operator has no effect [-Wunused-value]

>From the -fdump-tree-original output:

        if ((void) SAVE_EXPR <index ()>, 1)
          {
            (void) "a"[SAVE_EXPR <index ()>];
          }
        else
          {
            (void) "b"[SAVE_EXPR <index ()>];
          }

Observe that we evaluate index() (and save it) before evaluating the
ternary expression.  Since "(void) SAVE_EXPR <index ()>" is ostensibly
side-effect free, we get this warning.  Since SAVE_EXPR is not useless,
this is a false positive. Also the comma operator compiler-generated,
so warning about it is wrong.

Suppress this warning for this implicit expression. Test that the
warning is gone for "$ternary[index()]" but we still warn on cases like
"$ternary[(1, 0)]".

Alternatively, we could prevent all such warnings by changing the
definition of tem to "tree tem = cp_build_compound_expr (op0, idx,
tf_none)". That's probably the better solution but we'd need to check
if that would introduce false negatives.

Alternatively, we could set "side_effects_flag" for SAVE_EXPR, which
would also prevent this warning, but that feels wrong.

gcc/cp/ChangeLog:

        * typeck.cc (cp_build_array_ref): suppress unused-value
        warning for implicit comma expression.

gcc/testsuite/ChangeLog:

        * g++.dg/cpp0x/Wunused-value2.C: New test.

This is my first time hacking gcc, guidance is appreciated; I haven't
run the full test suite yet (which probably takes a long time when
built in debug mode, using
../gcc/configure --with-build-config=bootstrap-debug-lean --disable-bootstrap 
CFLAGS='-g -O0' CXXFLAGS='-g -O0').
Instead, I've been using this command validate my change:

        make -j8 && timeout 5 make check-c++ 
RUNTESTFLAGS=dg.exp=g++.dg/cpp0x/Wunused-value2.C | grep ^FAIL

without the "timeout" the command would go on to run other tests, like the 
"libgomp" ones etc.
Probably I could use "runtest" directly.
