I'm confused by this. Surely the pwrite-based code is writing exactly the
same data as before. Do we have to conclude that valgrind is complaining
about passing uninitialized data to pwrite() when it did not complain
about exactly the same thing for write()?
[ looks ... ] No, what we have to conclude is that the write-related
suppressions in src/tools/valgrind.supp need to be replaced or augmented
with pwrite-related ones.
