Ack, thanks. Bounce it when it is convenient for you. I can always log back in.

You might want to build Valgrind from sources and avoid distro
packages. I have 8 ARM dev boards (including two Aarch64), and there's
almost always VEX problems using prebuilt packages. Every ARM dev
board I have has Valgrind built from sources due to VEX updates
(http://valgrind.org/downloads/repository.html).

If you use the distro package, then some folks may come back in the
future asking for a newer version due to VEX parsing/decoding errors.
You may as well side step it now so its not a problem in the future.

Thanks for the help.
