It's due to my commit 92d675d1c1f23f3617e24b63c825074a1d1da44b

Strangely neither GCC 4.4 nor GCC 4.5 trigger such a warning, though
they are usually catching cases like that. Could it be a regression in
GCC 4.6, or do you think it's just that it wasn't detected in previous
versions?

Rearranging the code doesn't seems easy, so we should probably go to
zero initializers, as in the patch below.

cirrus: delete GCC 4.6 warnings

Commit 92d675d1c1f23f3617e24b63c825074a1d1da44b triggered uninitialized
variables warning with GCC 4.6. Fix them by adding zero initializers.

It also happens with GCC 4.2.1 but not with 4.3.2.
