According to 47ec794, this initialization is meant to
squelch an erroneous uninitialized variable warning from gcc
4.0.1. That version is quite old at this point, and gcc 4.1
and up handle it fine, with one exception. There seems to be
a regression in gcc 4.6.3, which produces the warning;
however, gcc versions 4.4.7 and 4.7.2 do not.

We probably _don't_ want to apply this one right now. The regression in
4.6 means some people on reasonably modern systems probably would still
see the warning. Debian stable ships with 4.4, and testing/unstable
defaults to 4.7 (though you can install a gcc-4.6 compatibility
package). But I have no clue if other distros made releases with 4.6.
