Yeah, it's equivalent to __attribute__((unused)) and according to the gcc 
manual section 6.30:

	In GNU C, an attribute specifier list may appear after the colon 
	following a label, other than a case or default label. The only 
	attribute it makes sense to use after a label is unused. This 
	feature is intended for code generated by programs which contains 
	labels that may be unused but which is compiled with â-Wallâ. It 
	would not normally be appropriate to use in it human-written code, 
	though it could be useful in cases where the code that jumps to 
	the label is contained within an #ifdef conditional.

I used it because I knew I wouldn't get away with putting a label inside 
an #ifdef :)
