This is documented:
`-Wuninitialized'
Warn if an automatic variable is used without first being
initialized or if a variable may be clobbered by a `setjmp' call.
These warnings are possible only in optimizing compilation,
because they require data flow information that is computed only
when optimizing. If you do not specify `-O', you will not get
these warnings. Instead, GCC will issue a warning about
`-Wuninitialized' requiring `-O'.
That explanation makes sense.

Please excuse any delays as the result of my ISP's inability to implement
an MTA that is either RFC2821-compliant or matches their claimed behaviour.
