Rarely, a false positive occurs with tamarin on valgrind due to using the value of (thisPage = val & kBlockMask) in TraceConservativePointer(), prior to telling valgrind that is defined. Easy fix appears to be to sink the calculation of thisPage to just before it is needed. The problem apparently showed up when TraceConservativePointer() was refactored in this changeset: changeset: 5579:3c36f7b25333 user: Lars T Hansen <lhansen@adobe.com> date: Mon Nov 29 15:46:48 2010 +0100 summary: ExactGC work: refactor conservative tracer (lhansen/fklockii)

Comment on attachment 501076 [details] [diff] [review] Move calculation of thisPage to avoid memcheck false positives. Great catch; I was too mechanical in my refactoring of TraceConservativePointer.
