It's not necessary, no, but... \shrug/

It is a good idea for us, at least; otherwise the undef will get a
register allocated for it and then not uninitialize the register and
we'll read back pseudorandom garbage. Rewriting to zero is legal and
ensures that sort of impossible-to-debug bug never pops up, even if it's
a dumb corner case.
