Fails on global uninitialised structs

[skade]

Consider the following C code:

typedef struct _test test;

struct _test {
   int test;
};

static test bar;

Corrode fails:

$ corrode uninitialized-global.c
("uninitialized-global.c": line 7): illegal initializer; check whether a real C compiler accepts this:
    { }

gcc accepts it:

$ gcc -c uninitialized-global.c -o test.o
$ echo $?
0

I would be willing to provide a patch if I had a rough idea on where to look and to approach the problem. (I got the Rust experience and a bit of Haskell, but not the Corrode experience)
