I haven't investigated whether this warning is valid, or whether it's
bogus
Well, it's completely bogus: portloc is initialized just above. I don't
understand why it wouldn't see that.
You will have to look at the GIMPLE or assembler to determine if the
warning is bogus after GCC has processed the setjmp call. It may very
well be the case that after those transformations, there *is* an
uninitialized use of portloc.
Suppressing the warning could be the wrong thing to do here. You may
have to declare portloc itself volatile.
Thanks a lot for all these Hurd changes, by the way. I really
appreciate your work.
Thanks,
Florian
