--- Comment #3 from Jonathan Wakely <redi at gcc dot gnu.org> ---
The {} means value-initialization as opposed to default-initialization.
I think value-init requires the compiler to zero out all the members first,
even though they will be given another value anyway.
I haven't checked the generated code, but that would be my guess (and I would
hope the dead stores can be optimized away).
