Since I updated 'mamba' to NetBSD 11 (which has gcc 12.5.0),
it's been spewing a closely related warning:
parse_func.c: In function 'LookupFuncWithArgs':
parse_func.c:2457:15: warning: 'argoids' may be used uninitialized [-Wmaybe-uninitialized]
2457 | oid = LookupFuncNameInternal(func->args_unspecified ? objtype : OBJECT_ROUTINE,

2458 | func->objname, nargs, argoids,

2460 | &lookupError);

parse_func.c:2234:1: note: by argument 4 of type 'const Oid *' {aka 'const unsigned int *'} to 'LookupFuncNameInternal' declared here

parse_func.c:2395:33: note: 'argoids' declared here
2395 | Oid argoids[FUNC_MAX_ARGS];

Presumably this could be silenced in the same way as in f04781df5.
I haven't troubled so far because I don't see any other BF animals
producing the same warning, but perhaps we should silence this one
too?
