buffer contents are mixed into the entropy pool: so it technically does not

matter whether the buffer is initialized at this point or not.  Valgrind (and

other test tools) will complain about this. When using Valgrind, make sure the

OpenSSL library has been compiled with the PEDANTIC macro defined (-DPEDANTIC)

to get rid of these warnings.  Compling with -DPURIFY will help as well.

The use of PEDANTIC with the PRNG was added in OpenSSL 0.9.8f.
