Thanks.

Given that they are C99 style initializers in general I don't see how
taking one member out of the initializer and leaving the other solves
the C89 violation.  But I do remember that gcc has historically had some
interesting problems with C99 initializers, so in this case I have just
opted to not use an initializer for either field, which should
make older gcc versions.
