I just did a fresh install of testing on my ppc Mac Mini, and yes,
valgrind segfaults just like he describes.

tuva:~> dpkg -l valgrind
...
ii  valgrind       1:3.6.0~svn112 A memory debugger and profiler
tuva:~> uname -a
Linux tuva 2.6.32-5-powerpc #1 Wed Jan 12 04:47:03 UTC 2011 ppc
GNU/Linux
tuva:~> valgrind /bin/ls
Segmentation fault
tuva:~> 

Upstream claims to support PPC32 and PPC64. Wouldn't it be
embarrassing to release Squeeze for ppc with a broken valgrind?
It's a vital development tool for many of us.

regards,
/Jorgen
