Hey,

I know that Purify can show the problematic source code too. Is it possible to show the corresponding code snippet reported by Purify ?
I wasn't able to extract the offending file/line out of Purify because it didn't show any. I think I know what is going on. Note that when we build on Windows, we use set of optimized functions in asm_utils_win32_x86.asm instead of asm_utils.c. AFAICT the implementation in asm_utils_win32_x86.asm reads 4 bytes at a time which could explain the uninitialized memory reads I was seing.
