http://www.google.com/search?q=uninitialized -> 2.4KK results http://www.google.com/search?q=uninitialised -> 180K results, most of them citing Valgrind 2.4KK > 10 * 180K AFAIU, "uninitialised" is British English, whilst "...zed" is American? --- $ grep -r uninitialised memcheck/ | grep -v "\.svn" | wc -l 868 $ grep -r uninitialized memcheck/ | grep -v "\.svn" | wc -l 19 -> most of them are -Wno-uninitialized

Yeah. Also, British English works OK for me :-)
gcc uses "initialized". I don't insist much, just prefer when tools from the same ecosystem use the same language. Feel free to ignore if this isn't enough to convince. // Background on "why?" - see bug 256525, had to support both // Memcheck:Uninitialized and Memcheck:Uninitialised after // getting the latter due to vim autocompletion :)
