On 2006-05-01 22:34:12, Ulf Möller, openssl developer [1], responded
[2] to openssl packager Kurt Roeckx [3] saying that he was for
applying the patch just to keep valgrind quiet.

But openssl doesn't like to talk about that, and neither does slashdot
for that matter.

For a distro packager, the maximum authority regarding what to do with
a given piece of software is upstream and common sense.

If upstream says it's a ok, then common sense takes a backseat during
technical discussions.

Not to mention that initializing variables like that is undefined and
bound to *always* cause confusion.
