When I have seen these in the past, they indicate a case where a variable
is assigned
and assigned later without the first value being used. Is this what you are
seeing?

What file and line?

We sometimes assign a variable 0 when declaring it to avoid gcc warning
about used
before initialized. It wouldn't surprise me if Scan didn't always like that.
