--- Comment #1 from Brooks Davis <brooks at FreeBSD.org> ---
I'd agree it's pointless, but there's seriously nothing wrong with the fix
other than making a path that isn't performance relevant slightly slower.  If
you want to submit a patch that would likely be fine.  Bug reports aren't the
places for this discussion.

Note that memset should be used in preference to bzero as the compiler should
be able to elide most of the cost of the memset since it can emit it inline and
then delete the dead stores.
