This looks right, but I'm making a lot of changes in this area at the
moment.  I guess you might as well check it in now, altho' it'll cause
a merge error when I come to check my stuff in.

I'm not sure that "defined but not used" makes any sense as part of
-Wall in Java.  It's not unreasonable to have unused fields for future
expansion, and we don't have the equivalent of __attribute__((unused)).
