That is the latest stable version for f19.
There are some newer versions for f20/rawhide, but I doubt they solve
the issue. http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/packageinfo?packageID=98

Then it at least isn't the fedora package/patches. Thanks for checking.
So it must be some flag/cpuid combination valgrind isn't handling
correctly.

Would you mind installing cpuid (it is packaged for fedora) or building
it from source: http://etallen.com/cpuid.html

Then run:
	cpuid -1
and
	cpuid -1 -r

Please file that output in a new bug at:
https://bugs.kde.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=valgrind

Thanks,
