There was a recent discussion on porting Valgrind to GNU hurd.
If you go to fosdem, there will
be a presentation about porting valgrind to solaris in the valgrind
devroom.
Let's hope we will have enough volunteers/courage/... to record
the valgrind dev room talks :)

To my knowledge, the source of information for what to do to
port valgrind to a new os is the sources.

Not knowing freeRTOS, I have no idea about the specific difficulties
on this OS compated to a more "classical" environment (such as linux,
android, solaris or freebsd, or darwin).
But even on such classical environments, the porting work is very
 significant.
