OK.  The strange "near initialization" formulation came in with a gcc2 
merge in 1999 (r24879), replacing previous diagnostics that did identify 
the field directly in the message, and never really made sense to me; I 
think naming the field directly in the diagnostic is better for all such 
diagnostics.
