Bug#293957: gcc-3.3: No warning when initializing a variable with itself.

[Ian Turner <vectro@yahoo.com>]

Package: gcc-3.3
Version: 1:3.3.5-5
Severity: minor


Consider the following C code:
-- stuffage.c: CUT HERE --
void stuffage() {
  int foo = foo;
}
-- CUT HERE --

If you compile this as follows:
gcc stuffage.c -Wall -c

Then gcc will generate no output. This is a bug, because this program 
actually uses the variable foo prior to its initialization.
