    asan: coff-alpha use of uninitialised value
    
    I think this is a false positive as the "use" is reported at a
    _bfd_link_reloc_status_error call, and the value passed is not used
    except when bfd_reloc_dangerous.  Avoid the warning anyway.
    
            * coff-alpha.c (alpha_ecoff_get_relocated_section_contents):
            Avoid false positive warning.
