This means the said variable is not initialized by an explicite value 
assignement before first use, but in most (all?) systems memory allocated 
for dynamic variables is zeroed out at allocation time and thus 
initialization takes place implicitely.

This is, strictly speaking, a syntax viaolation, but the compiler knows how 
to treat the statement as if it were correct.

The variable is unused in the compiled context. No harm, wasted space at

Jerry, don't worry about the warnings, see the embedded comments.
