The compiled code in sysutils/memtest86 is not an even multiple of 512 
bytes. Thus, at least on my system (4.10-STABLE), dd errors out at the 
last sector with "Invalid argument" and the last sector doesn't get 
written.

I solved this problem by tacking on enough bytes from /dev/zero to pad 
out to an even multiple of 512.
