           Summary: Missing-field-initializers warning for empty braces
           Product: clang
           Version: trunk
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P
         Component: -New Bugs

No warning should be issued when initializing with empty braces but instead
only when explicitly initializing one or more fields (but not all of them).

Compile the following with -Wextra:

struct Foo { int a, b, c; };

int main(void) {
    struct Foo foo = {};  // Default-initialize all fields of foo
    return foo.a;
}

Affects both C and C++. Default initialization documented in C++98 §8.5.1
paragraph 7 and C99 §6.7.8 paragraph 21.
