GCC issues a false positive warning, resulting in build failure with -Werror:

  In file included from /usr/include/glib-2.0/glib.h:114,
                   from src/include/glib-compat.h:32,

  cc1: all warnings being treated as errors

There is actually no problem since "elem" is initialized in both branches.
Silence the warning by initializig it with "NULL".

$ gcc --version
gcc (GCC) 12.2.0

It's not a false positive, but the fix is correct.
