This problem happens on ~amd64, but not on ~x86.
I'm like 99.9% sure this is just the strlen problem propagatin over to glibc-2.15. The solution is in the duplicate bug, but here's a nice link someone wrote on the issue: http://ck.kennt-wayne.de/2012/jan/valgrind-again%3A-strlen-redirection In the 0.1% chance that you think this is not a dup, please reopen with an explanation. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 390323 ***
Hello, yes, this is a dup: mine glibc lack strlen symbol in debug info. I'll try 3.6.1 (which some people claim to work, but I doubt it), otherwise I'll have to modify glibc eblit and rebuild the library, but this has a nasty drawback to keep and update private glibc version on each system update.
