While compiling net_db.c from Guile 2.0.12 with MinGW, I get a bunch of warnings such as this one:
net_db.c:454:20: warning: 'sym_ai_passive' defined but not used [-Wunused-variable] SCM_VARIABLE_INIT (sym_ai_passive, "AI_PASSIVE", ^ ../libguile/snarf.h:82:29: note: in definition of macro 'SCM_SNARF_HERE' # define SCM_SNARF_HERE(X) X ^ net_db.c:454:1: note: in expansion of macro 'SCM_VARIABLE_INIT' SCM_VARIABLE_INIT (sym_ai_passive, "AI_PASSIVE", ^ AFAICT, these SCM_VARIABLE_INIT calls wind up declaring static variables that are not used in net_db.c. Is that what's supposed to happen, or do I need to look more into this? Do people get these warnings on Posix platforms?
