Re: [Valgrind-users] valgrind w/intel Core Duo SSE3

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

This is a known bug in Valgrind -- see
http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=155528
and has been fixed in the trunk.  Fix will be in 3.3.1.

For the meantime use the trunk.  You can checkout and build
it as detailed at

http://www.valgrind.org/downloads/repository.html

Let me know if this does/does not fix the problem.
