[Bug c++/17207] No warning for nonsense template

I can think of a number of good reasons to use templates that don't 
use their argument. For example, they may have static variables 
in them and you may want to use one or the other one. libstdc++ 
uses something like this for the allocator classes. A warning 
would certainly be very unwelcome to many.
