[Valgrind-users] valgrind error on fedora 19 AMD64

[Jerry B. <je...@ge...>]

I'm running valgrind on fedora 19. I checked libvex code which executes the
hwcaps code, but can't find anything in particular.

valgrind --tool=memcheck /bin/ls

valgrind: the 'impossible' happened:

Note: see also the FAQ in the source distribution.
It contains workarounds to several common problems.
In particular, if Valgrind aborted or crashed after
identifying problems in your program, there's a good chance
that fixing those problems will prevent Valgrind aborting or
crashing, especially if it happened in m_mallocfree.c.

If that doesn't help, please report this bug to: www.valgrind.org

In the bug report, send all the above text, the valgrind
version, and what OS and version you are using.  Thanks.
