-Wmaybe-uninitialized warnings can be issued very late from the
optimizers, so this is very much a corner case in terms of usefulness
for -Werror because it is practically guaranteed to have new false
positives with unusual architectures, compiler versions, and
optimization flags.
If the presence of this warning in particular leads people to use
--disable-werror, maybe we should remove it from the default set of
warnings which trigger errors.
