Using uninitialized_var() is dangerous as it papers over real bugs[1] (or can in the future), and suppresses unrelated compiler warnings (e.g. "unused variable"). If the compiler thinks it is uninitialized, either simply initialize the variable or make compiler changes. As a precursor to removing[2] this[3] macro[4], refactor code to avoid its need. The original reason for its use here was to work around the #ifdef being the only place the variable was used. This is better expressed using IS_ENABLED() and a new code block where the variable can be used unconditionally.
