Yeah, that works.

Usually I just tag the variable with the unused attribute rather than
renaming it to handle cases like this where it's only conditionally
unused.  I assume you're also doing the renaming because you want to force
a compilation error if the assumption about the variable being unused is
false?

That's kind of a neat trick; I've not seen that before.
