char *ident_start = UNUSED;
That would set ident_start to zero even when GCC warnings are disabled, which would be a bit slower since ident_start does not need to be initialized. Unfortunately there is no syntax in C for a no-op initializer, so there's no way to define UNUSED so that it initializes ident_start when GCC warnings are enabled and leaves ident_start uninitialized otherwise.
