`_XimRead()` is being called with `reply` as target buffer instead of
using `preply`, accessing uninitialized memory a few lines later.
This error has been found by a static analysis tool. This is the report:
Error: UNINIT (CWE-457):
libX11-1.8.7/modules/im/ximcp/imDefLkup.c:561: alloc_fn:
Calling "malloc" which returns uninitialized memory.
libX11-1.8.7/modules/im/ximcp/imDefLkup.c:561: assign:
Assigning: "preply" = "malloc((size_t)((len == 0) ? 1 : len))",
which points to uninitialized data.
libX11-1.8.7/modules/im/ximcp/imDefLkup.c:573: uninit_use:
Using uninitialized value "*((CARD8 *)preply)".
