There is a risk that the variable will be used without being initialized.

This was largely found by using a static code analysis program called cppcheck.

Thanks!  Taken into the tile tree with some slight modifications (initialize variables to -1 not 0, and remove the resulting dead code in find_regs).

Hi Chris

So uint max was a better default value.
Yeah, good it came into use. The main thing that the code got a proper review :)


Kind regards
