+ * about uninitialized data. To silence these warnings,
+ * I've put together a suppressions file
+ * in debug/valgrind-suppress.
+ *
+ * Also, grep for VALGRIND_MAKE_READABLE in the OpenVPN source.
+ * Because valgrind thinks that some of the data passed from

+ * from uninitialized data, we need to untaint it before use --
+ * otherwise we will get a lot of useless warnings.
