Why exactly do we need this?

[andrew_low, 2014/09/22 17:49:18]

When we test on AIX there are tests that fail if this memset is not present.
I'll drop it from this patch for now.

     CHECK(isolate->factory()->FUN(Vector<const TYPE>::cast(dummy)).is_null()); \
     memset(dummy.start(), 0x20, dummy.length() * sizeof(TYPE));                \
     CHECK(isolate->has_pending_exception());                                   \
     isolate->clear_pending_exception();                                        \
     dummy.Dispose();                                                           \
   }
