I wonder why this initialization is a problem while there are about 20
other uses of "{0}". The warning is about the embedded rbnode, but why
does a more recent compiler not warn about that? Is this a missing fix
from the one you use?
I don't mind fixing compiler warnings as long as it bothers enough
people, eg. we have fixes reported by gcc 7 but I'm hesitant to fix
anything older without a good reason.
