  AFAIS, either one is possible...

  Me not being able to reproduce it says it's most probably be OK
for the codepaths I tested (FWIW, the ones I can see). If there's
an untested codepath, well...

  OTOH,  valgrind produces some false positives (its docs say it)
and gcc optimization can also play a role...

  So,  I'd  try to find a simple test case that produces the log.
Then, test this problematic codepath here, and see what comes out
of the exercise.

  Can you reproduce the bug? Do you have a simple test case?
