There are to angles to this problem. One is of course that, as gcc 
reports, we have an unused variable in our code, which we should safely 
remove. The other is that gcc treats warnings as errors and fails 
because of this. I don't think that this is the standard even for gcc 
4.6. You should find out where this is set and remove that setting.
