Check all of the uses of pseudo variables.  If any use that is MUST
uninitialized, add a store of 0 immediately before it.  For
subregs, this makes combine happy.  For full word regs, this makes
other optimizations, like the register allocator and the reg-stack
happy as well as papers over some problems on the arm and other
processors where certain isa constraints cannot be handled by gcc.
These are of the form where two operands to an insn my not be the
same.  The ra will only make them the same if they do not
interfere, and this can only happen if one is not initialized.

There is also the unfortunate consequence that this may mask some
buggy programs where people forget to initialize stack variable.
Any programmer with half a brain would look at the uninitialized
variable warnings.
