Hi Andrew:

After some other PLplot distractions were finished off I got this done
(revision 12625).

During the process I actually found instances where -O3
-Wuninitialized gave a false alarm, but generally those are uncommon.
Therefore, it is worthwhile searching out all instances of such
warnings and fixing them if they are valid (the usual case) or doing
some unnecessary initialization to quiet them (the uncommon case of a
false alarm).

I hope you will continue this process dealing with the -O3
-Wuninitialized warnings for our swig-generated code, and I plan to do
the same for the rest of our code.

Alan
