Re: [Nano-devel] Nano crashes with signal 11

[Enrico Mioso]

I was checking the other valgrind complain: winio.c, this line:
if (on_a_vt && ioctl(0, TIOCLINUX, &modifiers) >= 0) {

was wondering what was wrong here. Am I wrong in thinking that &modifiers is an 
address on the function stack?
unsigned char modifiers = 6;
why does valgrind complain about us passing uninitialized memory to the ioctl 
call?
Was wondering if we could avoid these valgrind errors, to make it easier to spot 
"real" issues in the future.
thanks a lot guys, again.
