    string: Suppress -Wmaybe-unitialized for wordcopy [BZ #19444]
    
    When compiling with GCC 6+ the sparc build warns that some variables
    might be used uninitialized.  However it does not seem the fact, since
    the variables are really initialized (and also other targets that use the
    same code, like powerpc, do not warn about it).
    
    So suppress the warning for now.
    
    Changes from v1:
    * Update patch description and the explanation for the suppresion.
