Consider again
circular_buffer buf = buf;
That is an example of code that is not written to work around -Wunitialized.
In parenthesis, I offered "void* p = &p" as an ultimate reduction when
the body of the copy constructor of circual_buffer is known, but
apparently that had teh side effect of side track many :-(
