I tracked this down to one of the Quitter files being a symlink with a relative path, and that path was going awry when the file was copied elsewhere within the chroot that the tests run in on the build slaves(!) And by the time I worked this out, glandium had inadvertently fixed the problem by landing an unrelated patch that happened to change that symlink to one with an absolute path. Weird, but at least the Valgrind builds are working again.
