Hi, hackers!
I found warning while compiling the code (introduced in
5720ae01436480c1dcdd34ece0c3d83b00844bca)
with the folloing message
postgres/build/../src/test/regress/pg_regress.c: In function
‘results_differ’:
postgres/build/../src/test/regress/pg_regress.c:1577:17: warning:
‘startpos’ may be used uninitialized in this function
[-Wmaybe-uninitialized]
1577 | fseek(difffile, startpos, SEEK_SET);
gcc (Ubuntu 11.5.0-10ubuntu1~22~ppa1) 11.5.0
ldd (Ubuntu GLIBC 2.35-0ubuntu3.13) 2.35
./configure --enable-debug --enable-cassert --enable-depend

CFLAGS="-ggdb -Og -g3 -fno-omit-frame-pointer -fvisibility=default
-Wno-clobbered"
It definitely seems false-positive from semantical point of view, but to
keep compiler silent I attached a small patch which fixes it.
Respectfully,
