Eek! If we have a hole, then let's just leave a comment rather than actually
*defining* an error. For two reasons:

1) the above is hard to recognize as "unused" with a quick visual scan
2) the above form defines a string constant, increasing the size of the app
   [a nit, but avoiding "bloat" is always nice]

I would recommend something simple like:

    /* UNUSED: + 1 */

APR uses lines like:

/* empty slot: +3 */


Cheers,
