Just for the record, I think the change is pretty cool (-Wunitialized
at -O0, OMG!). The code is new, so there are issues, and a good way to
find these is to turn it on by default and see who complains. I filed
bugs for the most common problems we have with this in chrome, so this
seems to be working :-)

(I did disable -Wuninitialized for chrome for now. Our other compilers
will catch most problems…but I think only clang warns about |A(int m)
: m_(m_) {}|, so I hope I can turn it back on soon.)
(I failed to send this to the list for some reason – sorry for the
duplicate mail, Ted & Chandler)
