Ok, that just looks like a gnu11 bug, then. Not being able to
initialize structures because some sub-structure has a volatile member
is just pure BS.

Has anybody reported this as a gcc bug? That email may be on the gcc
list, but I'm not seeing anybody acknowledge it as a bug..

I cannot imagine that anybody sane claims that this is *wanted*
behavior from "gnu11".
