I wouldn't call this a hole in the CI. AFAIU we don't support compiling with anything else than the default -O2 (and maybe -O0 for debugging?). -O3 is known to produce a lot of compiler warnings, and apparently -Os has such "problems", too. As far as I can see, it's a false positive warning here, "notifier" should always get initialized, the compiler just fails to see it correctly. Anyway, initializing the variable also can not hurt, so:
