>> Hi,

>> /* file test.c */
>>
>> #include <stdio.h>
>>
>> int main(void) {
>> int i;
>> fprintf(stderr, "i = %d\n", i);
>> } /* main */
>>
>>
>> Compile with:
>>
>> gcc -o -g test test.c
>>
>>
>> Then I run valgrind on Fedora 15, and here is what I get. (I also

>>
>> (Not that I am not interested in debugging the above sample program, but

>>
>> Thanks a lot in advance!
