Always a good thing to do, you can't broke something that worked by initialization. And it's nicer. Even though Peter^Wsome people would argue that it's pointless, especially for ancient and weird compilers (i.e. even slightly different compiler version that they're running or with one different setting). But looking at the function it's easy to dereference that opt lines below in that function. Same way cmd_exists can be used without initialization and I believe half of those hundred variables too. So the thing you're fixing with this hunk still needs a proper fix, and I don't know whether we want to hide that. But looking at the code, there's already so much stuff hidden... Basically, I'm trying to say "ACK, you were right, I'm running away too now!", which translates to "ACK" in tl;dr language.
