I know about this warning. I believe that it is a gcc bug. It happens
for gcc 4, but gcc 6 is silent, therefore I choose to ignore this. Do
you still want me to fix it?

Yes, this is gcc bug (https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=53119). The problem is the first member of struct is union so older gcc assumes initializer like '{ { 0 } }' instead of '{ 0 }'.

IMHO it should be better to workaround this bug for older gccs as gcc6 is not only supported compiler.
