Details:

main.c:2169:11: error: ‘num_mkfiles’ may be used uninitialized in this
function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized]

I've been bitten by false-positives from that warning in the past, which is
probably not unrelated to why it's not happening on Paul's doubtless-later
compiler, but I think it has a point here:
