        <pre>The static analyzer is warning about an unread variable write in
Parser::ParseCastExpression:

  switch (SavedKind) {
  case tok::l_paren: {
    // If this expression is limited to being a unary-expression, the paren can
    // not start a cast expression.
    ParenParseOption ParenExprType;
    switch (ParseKind) {
      case CastParseKind::UnaryExprOnly:
        if (!getLangOpts().CPlusPlus)
          ParenExprType = CompoundLiteral; // <<<< UNUSED WRITE WARNING
        LLVM_FALLTHROUGH;
      case CastParseKind::AnyCastExpr:
        ParenExprType = ParenParseOption::CastExpr;
        break;
      case CastParseKind::PrimaryExprOnly:
        ParenExprType = FoldExpr;
        break;
    }

This looks like it was introduced in <a href="https://reviews.llvm.org/D43357">https://reviews.llvm.org/D43357</a>

Before that the code looked like:

ParenParseOption ParenExprType =
        (isUnaryExpression && !getLangOpts().CPlusPlus) ? CompoundLiteral
                                                        : CastExpr;
So maybe we're missing a break ?</pre>
