           Summary: SVGRenderStyle fix uninitialized variables in the
                    Inherited and NonInherited flags
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 522+ (nightly)
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.4
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: SVG
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: freyther at handhelds.org


This might be a bit controversal and might remind one on the "Purify vs.
DeprecatedString" thread.
The problem is the following. There is a union with a number of bits and a
unsigned int to make this union 32 bits large. Then there is operator== which
only compares the int of the union. As the number of bits of the flags don't
add up to 32 we are according to valgrind comparing uninitialized memory. I
kind of agree with the tool so I'm looking forward for your opinions and
comments.
