That's rather clear : of course, non initialized variable are located
into the BSS area but for many compiler's including (if I remember
correctly) some gcc incarnation, a base type variable explicitely
initialized to zero goes also ends up located into the BSS area... In
that case, if you do not zero the BSS, you're dead...
