Bug Description

Binary package hint: valgrind

Valgrind doesn't work correctly with the new glibc 2.6

An attempt to rebuild the source package (incase it was a library version issue) results in the following error:

checking for the kernel version... 2.6 family (2.6.22-8-generic)
checking for a supported CPU/OS combination... ok (i686-linux-gnu)
checking for egrep... grep -E
checking the glibc version... unsupported version
configure: error: Valgrind requires glibc version 2.2 - 2.5
make: *** [configure-stamp] Error 1
