[Chilli] 1.2.9 compilation problem (compiled as part of openwrt)

[Adam Hammond]

Thanks for the tip Frank,

Just in ase anyone reads this at some point in the future, the version of gcc in openwrt BuildRoot (at the time of writing) is 4.3.3 so the flag "-Wno-error=unused-but-set-variable" won't work there.

Works a treat if you're using a newer version of gcc (4.6 onwards I think).

cheers,
Adam
