Compiling with GCC 4.6.0 20100925 produced a warning:
/src/qemu/hw/lsi53c895a.c: In function 'lsi_do_msgout':
/src/qemu/hw/lsi53c895a.c:848:9: error: variable 'len' set but not
used [-Werror=unused-but-set-variable]

Fix by making the variable declaration and its uses also conditional
to debug definition.

NACK, this uglifies the code and loses track of _what_ is that msgbyte 
we're reading.

Seconded.

If the warning bothers you, maybe "(void)len" can silence it in a less
unsightly manner.

That information could be saved by adding a comment, I used that
approach for vmstate.c.

I'll use that approach next.

Yes, that's fine for vmstate.c, but here you are also uselessly 
duplicating the code.  (void) len is good though.  I suggest doing the 
same for i386 too (and there you could put a reference to the manual).
