+ * @len: length in bytes
+ *
+ * When running under valgrind, this causes an error to be printed
+ * if the entire region is not defined.  Otherwise valgrind only
+ * reports an error when an undefined value is used for a branch, or
+ * written out.
+ *
+ * Example:
+ *	// Search for space, but make sure it's all initialized.
+ *	if (memchr(memcheck(somebytes, bytes_len), ' ', bytes_len)) {
+ *		printf("space was found!\n");
