Re: [Ada] warning patrol


My rationale for the patch was that it's better to have "idiotic"
initialization when the compiler cannot prove that it isn't needed
rather than having a non deterministic compiler. I agree that they are
better ways to solve the problem, but I don't think this is a good
reason to leave these warnings in the tree for weeks, a simple minded
patch with a comment saying fix in a better way later should go in
immediately IMHO. 

Anyway, since the policy for the GNAT code has always been to be
warning free, I assume that patches generating warnings will just be
rejected so the problem shouldn't occur in the future :).

Are you also working on GNAT C code warnings?

> BTW, do you have a copyright assignment on file with FSF?

Yes, this step was completed a few monthes ago.
