Hi Geert,
The below patch comes about from the build regressions and improvements
list you've sent out, but something doesn't add up that we'd be testing
with an old compiler where initialization with { 0 } generates a
"missing braces around initialization" warning. Is this really the
case or are we missing something here? There's no harm that I can see
with Alexey's fix, but are these really just false positives from a
compiler bug that we should selectively ignore if the "fix" is less
clean? Thanks,
Alex
