The ports version(s, both valgrind and valgrind-snapshot) don't work on FreeBSD 7, simply because the system call table for 7.0 hasn't been updated yet, and it also fails to compile on the current GCC (whereas the latter is an easy fix, which I could post as a pr, but didn't so far, because of the unresolved issues wrt. the new system calls, which I can't/don't have time to fix). I last tried installing valgrind about a week ago; if you tell me that something changed in that week (haven't done a csup since then), I'll gladly try again, but AFAIK, nothing's changed (i.e., it doesn't work on 7 so far). -- Heiko Wundram Product & Application Development
