[Bug c/30856] New: Missing "warning: '$FOO' may be used uninitialized in this function" in trivial case

[christoph dot mallon at gmx dot de]

int f(int x)
{
  int y;
  if (x == 42) y = 23;
  return y;
}

This simple function results in no warning about the possibly uninitialized
local variable 'y' when using the following compiler versions (compiler flags:
-O -Wall):
GCC 4.1.2 20070205
GCC 4.2.0 20070214
GCC 4.3.0 20070209

The warning is correctly reported by GCC 2.95.3, GCC 3.4.6 20060305 and GCC
4.0.4.
