Thanks - though the patch I posted uses the contrib/valgrind.supp file,
which I added before seeing the --enable-valgrind-annotations configure
option that does a better job of this.  So I'll revise it to remove that
suppression file (and add some usage notes to the internals/index.rst
document).

I suspect that the functions report_leak and parse_valgrind_logfile
could be moved into a lib/valgrind.exp at some point if someone wants to
reuse them - maybe adding a param to specify if we expect it to be clean
(PASS) vs leaky (XFAIL) - I'm close to having most of the jit testcases
be valgrind-clean.

Yeah - leaks are a much bigger issue for libgccjit.so than for e.g. cc1:
people embedding it into long-running processes like, say, an X server
aren't going to be happy about slow leaks.
