Ok, works for me.
Looking at the patch however tells me that it has the potential to hide real
bugs if the code is ever changed to actually do an uninitialized access.
It's not very likely in this case, but I generally recommend not to add
any variables at declaration time unless the initialization is to a
meaningful value that the code later uses.
