casting to (void) doesn't avoid the unused_result warning. testcase: 

=== Cut ===
extern int foo() __attribute__((warn_unused_result));
int main()
{
   (void) foo();

   return 0;
}
=== Cut ===
g++ -Wall -W -O2 -c unused.cc

unused.cc: In function 'int main()':
unused.cc:4: warning: ignoring return value of 'int foo()', declared with
attribute warn_unused_result
