The mdadm tool uses a config file, generally called mdadm.conf, to

Package: sispmctl

The source file src/sispm_ctl.c of sispmctl contains the following
line (where buffer is an array of unsigned char):
wmemset((wchar_t*)(buffer+5), (wchar_t)0x3FFF3FFF, (0x27-5)/sizeof(wchar_t));
The author's intent was to fill bytes 0x05 inclusive through 0x25
by Chris Liddell in the above-mentioned bug report
page, but I think it is perfectly sensible. Otherwise, backport the
patch made to the ghostscript upstream itself.
