Wow, nice, checking individual uninitialized fields within
the structure.

The structure should really be zero-initialized anyway; it's
passed as a structure in a message elsewhere.  With your
change, all fields in the structure are written, but in
theory the structure could change and stack garbage could
be sent over the wire.

What do you think of doing this instead?  Or in addition?

        struct gb_tty_line_coding newline = { };

(Presumably that would also silence the warning.)

I endorse of your change, either way.
