I've largely switched to ASan over valgrind because it runs _so_ much faster. Unfortunately it seems to miss these uninitialized-memory cases. I think using SANITIZE=memory would catch these, but it needs some suppressions tuning. The weird "zlib reads uninitialized memory" error is a problem (valgrind sees this, too, but we have suppressions). -Peff
