     Sorry for the late reply.

     I think you are right that initializing these two small (6 ints)
     arrays at the
     start of the function is fine if it helps the compiler.

     I haven't been able to reproduce the compiler warning myself
     though.
     My proposed patch would be:

     diff --git a/compress.c b/compress.c
     index 5dfa002..c825c78 100644
     --- a/compress.c
     +++ b/compress.c
     @@ -253,8 +253,8 @@ void sendMTFValues ( EState* s )
     --*/


     - UInt16 cost[BZ_N_GROUPS];
     - Int32 fave[BZ_N_GROUPS];
     + UInt16 cost[BZ_N_GROUPS] = { 0 };
     + Int32 fave[BZ_N_GROUPS] = { 0 };

     UInt16* mtfv = s->mtfv;


     { 0 } initializes the whole array with zero, so we don't have to
     know the exact
     number of elements.

     Does the above work for you?
