What do you think Jeff, you introduced this code 8 years ago and this
switch statement has always been broken.
Does anyone use this code?  Should we fix it, it just remove it?

This looks like a bug in automake???  ../../support/nfs/libnfs.a is
listed as _LDADD

https://www.gnu.org/software/automake/manual/html_node/Program-and-Library-Variables.html#index-maude_005fAR

which should add it to the 'ld' command, but I don't see that it should
be added as a dependency.

This arg has to be there because it is part of an external API.
As the function is passed as an arg to an extern function, gcc could
deduce that the signature cannot be changed just because the arg isn't
needed.

This arg doesn't need to be used (obviously) but cannot be removed.
So this is a dumb warning too.

Maybe we should add __attribute__((unused)) ??

I assume you get these errors by running "make check" without first
running "make"??
If you run "make" first, the errors go away, and you are left with the
warnings.

Maybe they are worth fixing .... let's see what Jeff thinks.
