We're going to close this issue for now even though we're not getting perfectly clean valgrind runs. With R -d 'valgrind --dsymutil=yes --tool=memcheck', we're seeing with:

  vet(
    !anyNA(.),
    c(234234131431, 123413413413, 1341341341, 12341234134, 562456234, 24624624,
      2452345234, 2345234524, 23452452, 2243524352, 254254234, 2452452435, NA)
  )

The best conclusion I could come up with on debugging is that the error is actually coming from CSR_strmlen_x, and in particular, from the use of memchr therein, where memchr is reading memory in blocks and as such overshoots the '\0'. Note the _platform_memchr$VARIANT$Base.
