Hmm.. Callgrind seems to have this bug, too:
VG_(expand_file_name) is called at initialization time.
This bug may be a regression :(

As I use the output filename early to enable interaction with the GUI,
I will fix the bug by resetting the name when a PID change (fork) is detected.

Patch about to come.

Yes.
