Blah. Your message has:
Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=iso-2022-jp
This apparently is caused by a combination of GCC using groovy UTF tickmarks in its error messages when in a UTF locale and alpine believing it to be a great idea to automatically try for the "simplest" character set it can encode the content in. No idea why that means that iso-2022-jp is picked, but it is.
Yeah, precisely.
As to the content of this patch -- I'd almost say it's better to live with the warning than with that unitialized_var() thing. That ARRAY_SIZE is very much a compile time constant, so exactly how dumb must GCC get before we get to say to here and no further?
Pretty dumb indeed -- in fact that's the case with 4 patches in this series. Like Jeff said, that (gcc's) behaviour has likely even improved w.r.t. later versions, so I guess it's fine if these 4 patches are not applied -- I'll leave it upto the maintainers.
