I think this is from after 4.4 branched:
----------------------
template <typename TT> struct InputIterator
{
    InputIterator ()
      {
        TT i;
        (void)*i;           // require dereference operator
      }
};

InputIterator<int *> i;
---------------------

> c++ -c deal.II/source/dofs/dof_renumbering.cc  -W -Wall
deal.II/source/dofs/dof_renumbering.cc: In constructor
'InputIterator<TT>::InputIterator() [with TT = int*]':
deal.II/source/dofs/dof_renumbering.cc:10:   instantiated from here
deal.II/source/dofs/dof_renumbering.cc:6: warning: value computed is not used

That's obviously bogus, the compiler warns about a statement that is
explicitly cast to 'void' so there is no computed value any more.

The code is culled from boost's concepts checks, so this is going to hit
quite a number of people.
