--- Comment #11 from Mark Wielaard <mark at klomp dot org> ---
So the flag that seem to trigger it is -Os (but only on 32bit systems?).
Proposed the following:

libelf: Initialize n to zero in elf_getarsym.
When building with gcc -Os it seems we can inline read_number_entries
but if that function fails then n will not be initialized. GCC seems not
to realize that in that case n won't be used at all. Explicitly initialize
n to zero to prevent a spurious error: 'n' may be used uninitialized in
this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized] in that case.
