failure with Clang's memory sanitizer: use-of-uninitialized-value

[Vincent Lefevre]

On my Debian/unstable x86_64 machine (with GMP 6.1.2):

#include <gmp.h>

int main (void)
{
  mpz_t z;

  mpz_init (z);
  mpz_set_ui (z, 1);
  mpz_dump (z);
  mpz_clear (z);

  return 0;
}

compiled with: clang-7 -fsanitize=memory -o tst tst.c -lgmp

gives the following error:

cventin:~> ./tst
Uninitialized bytes in __interceptor_puts at offset 1 inside [0x701000000010, 2)
