[Bug c/21161] New: "clobbered by longjmp" warning ignores the data flow


The warning 
     argument 'obj' might be clobbered by 'longjmp' or 'vfork' 
does not take into account the facts that 
     1) When longjmp() is called, setjmp() returns a non-null value, 
     2) In this case, when setjmp() returns a non-null value, 'obj' is 
        reset before being used. 
 
$ gcc -v 
Using built-in specs. 
Target: powerpc-apple-darwin7.8.0 
Configured with: /Users/bruno/data/work/gcc-4.0.0-20050410/configure
