It adds clutter.  Also, fixing the tool means you fix all the places at
once rather than slowly adding workarounds one by one.

Does scan-build from LLVM 6.0 handle this correctly?  If so, I'd say to
just mark this warning as broken (and thus ignore it) for scan-build50
just as we ignore certain warnings from GCC 4.2.1 because they are
broken-as-implemented.
