IME, older versions of gcc will warn about any variable that's assigned
more than once, even if those assignments are before the setjmp call.
Presumably this is stricter than necessary, but I don't know enough
details of gcc's register usage to be sure.

Since we're trying to silence the warning in existing and even obsolete
compilers, whether it gets improved in future compilers is not terribly
relevant.
