Re: Reading uninitialized memory

     I'm guessing that zero is stored without limbs and that

  read from uninitialized memory is not used and doesn't affect the
  value of zero, but you could get rid of a read and the spurious
  error message from this and other bounds-checking programs.

Your analysis is correct.
