In Valgrind we encounter a lot of issues and accesses regarding uninitialized values in memory.
Almost all of them are related to pass.c
==10289== Conditional jump or move depends on uninitialised value(s)

What i have encountered.
Initial issue analysis around line 198 in pass.c // Problem: Possible use of uninitialized memory in memcmp function call.
Solution: Ensure 'b' and 'd' buffers are fully initialized before memcmp call
Unfortunately i wasn't able to properly track down from where b and d originate, and where they are initialized.
Maybe we can track that down.
