The following code generates a warning when using GCC analyzer,

```
struct Guard {

Guard lock() {
return Guard();

void bar() {
auto foo = lock();
}
```
Compiled with GCC version 13.1:
```
$ gdc -fanalyzer test.d -O2 -c
test.d: In function 'lock':
test.d:5:5: warning: use of uninitialized value 'MEM[(unsigned

Any ideas? Thanks!
Hi,
Thanks for posting this!
Had a quick poke around - also with a C++ equivalent test - and
it looks like GCC's static analyzer is not good at dealing with
returning non-trivially copyable struct via NRVO.
I'll have a prod a bit more later, but my first instinct would be
to raise a bug report with GCC.
