[vtkusers] vtkAbaqusElementModel and vtkAbaqusInputDeckReader

[Mathieu Malaterre]

Budd,

	Thanks for the feedback.
	For #1, sorry my mistake, how about then:

      if( iter->c_str()[0] == *(star) )

    Looks like my old gcc 2.95 had trouble casting the expression, 
otherwise.

	For #2, it just means I don't know what those variables are for, but 
the compiler complains that they are not used. Another way to get rid of 
this compiler warning is to remove the var from the function declaration.
