You research paper is wrong and does not consider C is an inherently insecure
language to be begin with.  There are many other things wrong with it.  Like
for an example recommending the use of memset when you want to hide the stores
from the compiler.  There is already a thread on the glibc mailing list about
this exact thing about adding a secure memset which is GCC is not going to
optimize away.
