I ran strace but it doesnt give any meaningful info as it faults after the very first execve call. I am guessing this has something to do with the load address of valgrind. Is there any way I can debug this a bit more ?? My configure options are as follows

Which Valgrind version are you using ? This issue should have been
fixed in Valgrind 3.4.0.
