Today I happened to notice that build_block() has an unused argument.
I didn't see a reason for this, and no caller passes anything other
than NULL here, so I removed it.

OK for mainline.

I prefer to do a little archeology before dropping something. The use to set BLOCK_TYPE_TAGS was deleted by Mark Mitchell Oct 26, 1999, and BLOCK_TYPE_TAGS itself was added by rms May 26, 1990, and apparently never used. So, yes, this parameter is useless and should be removed. -- Jim Wilson, GNU Tools Support, http://www.SpecifixInc.com
