Then configure your valgrind to ignore this uninitialized use of data. Normally usage of uninitialized data is an oversight done by the programmer that may cause unintended consequences. Because of that valgrind complains about them. But here the use of this uninitialized data is intentional and the programmer are very well aware of what they did. Perhaps it would be a good idea to add a README.valgrind containing a description of what happens and how to configure valgrind to ignore the uninitialized reads ?
