I thought Unreferenced (X) was newer than Warnings (Off, X)?

The good thing about Unreferenced is that you get a warning if you do
access the thing.

The slightly confusing thing is that it sort-of means "read": eg,
declaring a BC lock, which locks during elaboration,

  L : Lock (Some_Semaphore'Access);
  pragma Unreferenced (L);
