Hi Elijah,

Playing with -Wunused-parameters, I notice there are several functions with unused parameters in merge-recursive.c. The patch below drops them all. We know they're not being used, so it can't make anything _worse_, but this is a good opportunity to confirm that they don't represent some latent bug.

In most cases I've been trying to determine the "bug versus cruft" thing myself, but I fear that merge-recursive exceeds my abilities here. ;)
