Nothing significant.  _U_ doesn't cause any problems if the parameter
is, in fact, used (other than omitting a warning if the parameter later
becomes unused - but as this is machine-generated code, it'd take some
more work to make the parameter go away in that case, and if the
function is called through a pointer we *can't* make it go away).
