Ah, I see what coverity might complain about. The value will not be
initialized if neither the specific nor the default mode is specified in
the XML. I'll send a v2 fixing both the coverity issue and the
compilation problem since this one would not fix coverity as it would be
possible to have @tmp uninitialized.
