thinking again out loud:
The function could be changed to (which we seem to be missing on the mainline):
static int blocksize = 4096; 
 
int bar (int); 
 
void foo (void) 
{ 
  int toread; 
  int bytes; 
  static char eof_reached = 0;
 
  toread = blocksize; 
  while (1) 
    { 
      bytes = bar (toread); 
      if (bytes <= 0) 
        { 
          if (bytes < 0) 
            continue; 
          goto temp; 
        } 
      toread -= bytes; 
     if (toread == 0)
       goto temp1;
    } 
   
 
  if (bytes == 0) 
temp:
    eof_reached = 1; 
temp1:
} 

So comming out of the loop bytes will be zero if we break out of it but otherwise cannot, so we can skip 
if statement.  This is a missing optimization on the mainline (someone should look into it) but now my 
comment #10 becomes true and we see that it is always used as uninitized.
