No, the fix should be to write the program not to use uninitialized data.

I friend of mine told me that a friend of his (you can tell how accurate
this is going to be) worked at some major airline manufacturer for a
co-op work term.  He noticed that the square root routine in the math
library didn't have a check to reject negative numbers, so he added one.
All the flight-testing software stopped working.  The "solution" -
remove the check.
