[obvious, PATCH 4/3][doc] -Wuninitialized doesn't do -Wclobbered's job


Oh, and this old documentation bug.  (AFAICT this is a historical
artifact from the pre-tree-ssa times when both -Wclobbered and
-Wuninitialized were implemented on RTL.)

This one is actually independent of the others and, I believe, is
obvious enough.  I am going to install tomorrow.

Subject: [PATCH 4/4] [doc] -Wuninitialized doesn't do -Wclobbered's job

        * gcc/doc/invoke.texi (-Wuninitialized): Don't mention the clobbered by
        setjmp situation here.  Fix a verb's ending: "the exact variables or
        elements for which there are warnings depends" -> "... depend".

 If you want to warn about code that uses the uninitialized value of the
 variable in its own initializer, use the @option{-Winit-self} option.
