[Xorp-hackers] Compiling xorp 1.8.3 for Debian using g++-4.6

[Jose Manuel dos Santos Calhariz]

I am packaging xorp 1.8.3 for Debian.  The default compiler is now g++
v4.6.  This compiler is more stricter than previous versions.

This g++ have one new warnings:

  -Wunused-but-set-variable

This warning when used with -Werror causes a fail to build.  The 
position on Debian is to fix the problems on the source code instead
of using the flag -Wno-error=unused-but-set-variable for disabling the
warning. 

I am asking if this problem is solved in the git repository or if will
be fixed in the near future.  Maybe this is a simple fix and is enough
to comment out the affected variables. 

That's 21 warnings, follow the list of messages for reference:
