oh right valgrind is a shellscript already, and I could like loic
suggest trap on SIGILL from the shellscript and fail with an error
message in that case…

I know people are supposed to "know" but if I can easily print an error
message it's even better.

Thanks to both of you, it's likely that the next valgrind will have that
then.
