[Bug c++/20644] New: bogus uninitialized warning on unused variable

[sebor at roguewave dot com]

The warning below is inappropriate since j can never be used in the function.

$ cat t.cpp && gcc -c -O -W t.cpp
int foo ()
{
    int i;
    int j;

    for ( ; ; ) {
        i = 0;
        if (0 == i)
            break;
    }

    if (1 == i)
        return j;

    return 0;
}

t.cpp: In function `int foo()':
t.cpp:4: warning: 'j' might be used uninitialized in this function
