Hi Andreas,

The valgrind test is an odd one.  

You can get a bit more info by running it manually, i.e.

   cd src/tests
   t.valgrind -v

You can also run "sh -x t.valgrind -v" to see what commands are being
executed and manually run them from the command line.

As you've seen, valgrind can point to code (like strchr) that's in
glibc :->

When I run "make check" as my userid, it fails.  When I run as root, it
passes.  At one point I experimented with different versions of
valgrind and I think the results (pass/fail) depended on version.
Unfortunately, I don't have details.

Sorry but I can't be more helpful :-<
