While whether or not you get unused parameter warnings (and they are just warnings) depends on the Postfix version (the check was added in Postfix 2.9.0), whether or not mailman_destination_recipient_limit is used depends on whether or not you have defined a "mailman" transport in master.cf. 

If no mailman transport, then mailman_destination_recipient_limit is unused. If there is a mailman transport, then mailman_destination_recipient_limit is used. 

Postfix transports can be called anything you want to call them. There is nothing magic about a Postfix transport named "mailman" that ties it to GNU Mailman. So this is really a Postfix issue, not a Mailman issue.
