As a clarification, the problem on Darwin (which is what I started
with originally) isn't actually about variable initialziation, but
about whether the global symbol gets exported. I believe that (when
it is present), the global is properly initialized as zero.
OpenAFS will link and run correctly on Darwin with this:
struct rxkad_stats rxkad_stats = {}
but not this:
struct rxkad_stats rxkad_stats;
I really don't know why.
