  This avoids a couple of uninitialized warnings from gcc by
initializing the object in question.  The one in coffread.c seems like
it could be a latent bug.  The one in scm-value.c is harmless, but GCC
can't see that.

2018-10-03  Tom Tromey  <tom@tromey.com>

	* guile/scm-value.c (gdbscm_value_to_string): Initialize
	"buffer_contents".
	* coffread.c (coff_symtab_read): Initialize "newobj".
