I think the configure help text and commit message could use some improvement.
This option only disables the random fill of the free data, it still
overwrites memory - only with zeros instead. So it doesn't disable memory
overwrite at all.
A question though: is there really anyone who suggests that it is safer to
fill the data with random data rather than just zeros? I just can't see the
point with doing such a slow operation and waste random seed on this.
