Some comment / justification is missing. Ulrich Drepper, in his paper
"How to write shared libraries" [1], wrote
  "The compiler will take care of avoid-
   ing the initializers. To achieve the best results even with
   old compilers it is desirable to avoid explicit initializa-
   tions with zero if possible."
Since you are apparently speculating on a new compiler, please tell
starting which version of GCC one can assume that (on ELF platforms)
   const char *x = NULL;
produce code that is as good as
   const char *x;

> +const char *argp_program_bug_address = 0;

Also, please don't use 0 to denote a null pointer. That is antiquated
style from the 1980ies.
