Bug #: 51544 Summary: uninitialized variable false positive prevents bootstrap at -O3 Classification: Unclassified Product: gcc Version: 4.7.0 Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: middle-end AssignedTo: unassig...@gcc.gnu.org ReportedBy: m...@use.net I checked by hand, and this looks like a false positive to me. It doesn't come up without -O[3,fast]. NOTE: I have hand-modified my build/bootstrap-lto.mk to use -Ofast. It's possible that using the bootstrap-O3 build-config will reproduce it as well. $ ~/src/gcc-trunk/configure --enable-bootstrap --prefix=/home/matt --enable-clocale=gnu --with-system-zlib --with-demangler-in-ld --enable-lto --with-fpmath=sse --enable-languages=c,c++,lto --with-build-config=bootstrap-lto --enable-build-with-cxx --disable-libmudflap --with-cpu=core2 --with-tune=core2 --disable-libssp $ make -j7 profiledbootstrap /home/matt/src/gcc-trunk/gcc/cp/parser.c: In function ‘bool cp_parser_ctor_initializer_opt_and_function_body(cp_parser*)’: /home/matt/src/gcc-trunk/gcc/cp/parser.c:17533:43: error: ‘list’ may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized]
