You could have a look at the docs for GCC 4.2
(http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc-4.2.4/gcc/Variable-Attributes.html#Variable-Attributes).
But the documentation for "used" is not that spectacular:
|used|
This attribute, attached to a variable, means that the variable must
be emitted even if it appears that the variable is not referenced.
