Hence we will execute the budy of the while loop in that function at least once, which means err will be initialized. I'm curious what gcc version and/or -Wall flags triggered this warning. I'm using gcc 4.7.2 from Debian and it's not complaining. I'm happy to initialize err to zero just to shut up the gcc warning, but I'm curious how often it's triggered, since this looked pretty trivial for gcc to be able to figure out on its own.
