Coverity actually complained about track being uninitialized, which this
patch does not address. And the reason it does this is that it doesn't
understand the algorithm: track will always be initialized in the first
iteration of the loop. (If there is a first iteration of the loop -- is
this actually guaranteed? A file without tracks seems to be pretty useless.)
FYI: In Coverity's analysis there are loop iterations, but it just
assumed that track is not initialized in the loop (which boils down to
saying that it presumed the tracks' current_timestamp to be invalid
(denominator 0). I hope this can't happen.
(There is btw another issue: The initialization of minimum_timestamp
presumes that int are 32bit which need not be true.)
