To be consistent, I rather see them commented out
i.e

foo(int bar)
->
foo(int /*bar*/)
rather than
foo(int)

as unloved as it maybe. as long as it _IS_ in the build, it has to build
and, especially in // build, having the build.log flooded with
thousands of warning kind of defeat the point of having warning in the
first place.
