+Valgrind works best on systems with glibc-2.1.X or 2.2.X, and with gcc
+versions prior to 3.1.  gcc-3.1 works, but generates code which causes
+valgrind to report many false errors.  For now, try to use a gcc prior
+to 3.1; if you can't, at least compile your application without
+optimisation.  Valgrind-1.0.X also can't handle glibc-2.3.X systems.
