Summary:                    [patch] Potential malfunction due to unitialized
local variable
Description: 
The compiler correctly reports:

In function 'parse_register_contact':
'single_binding_found' may be used uninitialized

Upon inspection, if (!strcasecmp(curi, "*")) we will set wildcard = 1 and
single_binding_found will have a random value, since initialization of
local variables is undefined.

At the next line:

if (wildcard_found && (ast_strlen_zero(expires) || expire != 0 ||
single_binding_found))

we now test single binding found in an "or", and the result will be
random.

A patch to 1.8 head is provided.
