A gentoo user who wants valgrind-3.6.1
instead of the released valgrind-3.8.0
That's somewhat of a mismatch in philosophies, isn't it?
Why is 3.6.1 better for you?

Edit the 'configure' script. Find GLIBC_VERSION and see what 2.15
does instead of 2.14. There is an assignment GLIBC_VERSION=....
Just after that, detect "2.15" and change to "2.14".
IMNSHO you'd be better off using valgrind-3.8.0.
valgrind-3.6.1 has _lots_ of unimplemented instructions
and other bugs that have been fixed in 3.8.0. There's
not quite two years of development that 3.6.1 does not have.
