            Bug ID: 65115
           Summary: default init_priority attribute
           Product: gcc
           Version: 4.9.2
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: web
          Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org
          Reporter: nyh at math dot technion.ac.il

The gcc documentation for the "init_priority" mentions the relative ordering of
init functions with different priorities, but neglects to mention how they are
ordered with other init functions which do *not* specify an init priority. This
is usually important to know!

Looking at the gcc source code (gcc/tree.h), I see the answer: functions which
do not have an explicit init_priority, get a default priority,
DEFAULT_INIT_PRIORITY, which is 65535. This information is missing in the
documentation.
