New description:
It would be nice to have a --enable-memory-poisoning configure switch to
make av_malloc()/av_realloc() fill the memory with arbitrary or random
data. This could be enabled by default in tests/fate.sh:configure to do
better memory testing on all FATE instances without needing an advanced an
slow tool like valgrind.
