There's a lot of cases where incomplete and/or excess initializations
are used, especially when they are produced by complex macros.  I
don't know whether this particular case can be used for a purpose; I
always use -Wall in my work.

You might consider posting this question to the gnu.gcc.bug news group
(or write to its e-mail gateway, bug-gcc AT gnu DOT org), where the GCC
maintainers will have a definitive answer for you.
