Hi,

Undefined and unused is not the same.

There is NO way to clerify all unused functions in a program.
You could call functions by their addresses and those addresses
could be calculated in runtime. So you don't know...

This is especially important in a gtk program where most (if not all) signal callbacks will be passed to g_signal_connect() as a function pointer, and will never be called directly.

If you only use static functions in this case, the compiler can catch these as Mike already noted.
