You can either wait until tomorrow snapshots or pull the latest CVS using the

: [openssl.org #2138] Resolved: [PATCH] Change needed for "-DPURIFY"
builds.

This patch fixes a bug with the -DPURIFY flag. The stat structure contains
padding and unused fields that are not initialized with the stat call. This
causes applications such as Valgrind to be unable to analyze OpenSSL
executables that are compiled with the -DPURIFY flag.
This is for OpenSSL

As a developer on the PurifyPlus product at IBM, I'd like to contribute a
Purify usage note to this discussion.
I see that the issue is RAND_add using whatever memory it's given (some of
which can be uninitialized garbage) as entropy input for the random number
generator. Tools like Purify repo

I took a closer look at current valgrind and the client requests. I
assume you mean doing something like this:
if (VG_USERREQ__RUNNING_ON_VALGRIND) memset(&st, 0, sizeof st);
It might be a nuisance to fix these, but at least it keeps the code more
correct. Right?

Maybe you should try to suppress that in valgrind before telling us
what to do. Try running a simple program
You're missing the point -- your comment is the height of irony, in a way.
Use a suppression to make Valgrind shut up.
