Are we missing one? I had a typo. I was using an uninitialized variable. Modern compilers didn't complain. Old ones did. (I don't set any compiler or loader flags.)
What gets checked isn't a monotonic function of the compiler version. Testing with as many compilers as possible is a plus.
Usually, you won't get that type of warning unless you enable it. And usually, you only get that type of warning in an optimized compile, since the dataflow analysis needed to detect it is part of the optimization code.
