Supported by gcc, but not supported by clang. More info:
New warnings for unused local typedefs

The behavior of -Wall has changed and now includes the new warning flag
-Wunused-local-typedefs. This may result in new warnings in code that compiled
cleanly with previous versions of GCC.

For example,

template<typename _Tp>
  int
  foo(_Tp __a)
  {
    typedef int return_type;
    return 5;
  }

int i = foo(415);

Gives the following diagnostic:

warning: typedef ‘return_type’ locally defined but not used
[-Wunused-local-typedefs]
     typedef int return_type;
                 ^

Although these warnings will not result in compilation failure, often -Wall is
used in conjunction with -Werror and as a result, new warnings are turned into
new errors.

To fix, simply remove the unused typedef.

As a workaround, use -Wno-unused-local-typedefs.
