So, let's give Pranit a concrete "here is what we want to see
squashed in", while you guys discuss peculiarity with various
platforms and their system headers, which admittedly is a more
interesting tangent ;-)
There are early returns with "goto finish" even before _syn
variables are first assigned to, so they would need to be
initialized to NULL. The other two get their initial values
right at the beginning, so they are OK.
