OK, I think this would actually be something that it would be reasonable for us to \
supress - the sendto is actually getifaddrs() talking to the kernel via a netlink \
socket so any information leak is only from a userland process to the kernel.

At least in the glibc 2.3.5 source all the structure members seem to be properly \
initialised so I[m guessing it is a padding byte that is being complained about.
