[Valgrind-developers] Mac OS X 10.10 (Yosemite) support

[Julian S. <js...@ac...>]

There has been some effort recently to improve Valgrind's support for
Yosemite.  If you develop on Mac OS, you might like to try out the
trunk (svn co svn://svn.valgrind.org/valgrind/trunk) and report any
breakage you get.  Support for Yosemite is good enough that at least
one large graphical application (Firefox) runs OK.  Support for the
previous release, 10.9 (Mavericks), is also substantially improved.

Note that the work has targetted 64 bit processes only.  32 bit might
work, and probably better on Mavericks, but I suspect it will be
increasingly problematic on Yosemite due to Valgrind's 32 bit x86
instruction set support not having progressed passed SSSE3.
