--- Comment #1 from Jonathan Wakely <redi at gcc dot gnu.org> ---
IMHO we should have a specific check for self-initialized references, instead
of relying on the compiler to identify the use of an uninitialized variable in
later code.
Doing self-init for references to silence uninitialized warnings makes no
sense, because you can't re-bind the reference later, so it will always stay
uselessly bound to itself.
