Not sure if this is a bug, or I'm just missing some option or other, but I
appear to be missing "uninitialized variable" warnings (in some cases, but not
others) when compiling C such as the following:
#include
int
main(void)
{
int foo;
int i;
i = 1;
while (i) {
if (i == 10) {
foo = 50;
}
/* Uncomment this block and warnings miraculously appear
if (i == 15) {
foo = 52;
}
*/
if (foo) {
printf("%d\n", foo);
}
++i;
if (i > 20) {
break;
}
}
return 0;
}
I'm using the following to compile (which gives no output from gcc):
- /usr/bin/gcc -Wall -W -ansi -pedantic -O2 -o foo foo.c
And output from gcc -v gives this:
: gcc -v
Using built-in specs.

Someone also tried the same code on 4.1.2 and got the same results (if that
helps).
