Hi Ivan, I do know that there is a working port of valgrind 2.4 to FreeBSD at http://www.rabson.org/ I believe its packaged in freebsd's ports as well. I am doing a NetBSD port which is based on -current ( we merge on occasions but as those are very time consuming, we have not in a while) unfortunately is suffering from a lack of free time (juggling a day job that is demanding). I would not mind more help on that aspect. Currently it runs, and we are in the process of trying to pass all relevant regression tests before making any formal release about it. Also, the NetBSD port addresses most common issues which *BSD derivatives will face when porting valgrind, such as signal handling, passing parameters by stack to syscalls, changes to the code which loads the client etc. If there is a concerted and open effort to port valgrind to any other *BSD architecture, I would love to share and abstract these fixes, but currently they reside in our tree at http://vg4nbsd.berlios.de . Of course in an ideal world, time would not be a constraint and a decent port will materialise soon and hopefully integrated into the main line.
