--- Comment #6 from Mark Wielaard <m...@klomp.org> ---
BTW it seems this whole discussion is duplicated in the comments of
memcheck/mc_main.c mc_post_clo_init ()

  // We assume that brk()/sbrk() does not initialise new memory.  ...

With as conclusion:

   // So we should arguably observe all this.  However:
   // - The current inaccuracy has caused maybe one complaint in seven years(?)
   // - Relying on the zeroed-ness of whole brk'd pages is pretty grotty... I
   //   doubt most programmers know the above information.
   // So I'm not terribly unhappy with marking it as undefined. --njn.

Which was written in 2009. So maybe times have changed since then. But I don't
really remember any false positive report about this.
