IMHO, it doesn't hurt to have variables initialised, regardless where they are.
In some cases, it explicit initialisations hurt performance, but this
is not the case here.
I hope Barend will agree with me.

Once concepts make it into C++, then compilers will know to ignore such
uninitialized objects, but so far we have to help the compilers to
overcome their
lameness :)
