Until gcc gets a feature allowing it to whack the programmer on the back of the head with Knuth's "The Art of Computer Programming" for writing such stupid code that relies on the behaviour of volatile "a = b = 0;", then a warning seems like a good idea.
a = b = 0; might be stupid.
Is if ( ( a = expr ) ); is also stupid?
I thought that that idiom was cited as an example for the expressiveness of C in the C bible (the K&R book).
