   I'm using the djgpp port of gcc 2.7.2 on a pentium.

   Why does this style of initialization result in a warning (missing
   braces around initializer for`junk[0]') ?  It seems like a reasonable
   and safe style to me.  What flag would I use to turn this off?  I'm
   using -Wall currently.

     int junk[2][3] = { 1, 2, 3,
			4, 5, 6} ;

A doubly dimensioned array requires a doubly depth initialization array: 

int junk[2][3] = 
{ 
  {1, 2, 3},
  {4, 5, 6}
};

This gives you other benies like:

int junk[2][3] = 
{ 
  {1 },
  {4, 5, 6},
  {3, 2	},
} ;

elided initializers defaluting to zero.

besides, it's the standard!
