This shuts up a potential uninitialized variable warning.

Potential warning or potential uninitialized use?
The code was right before the change, and if the compiler
generates such a warning on it, it's the compiler who
should be fixed, not the code: it's obvious the variable
can't be used uninitialized here, and moving the things
around like that makes the code misleading and hard to
understand...
