1. Use a shell alias:

That won't work, as too many parts of the system ignore the aliases.
2. Replace grep/egrep/fgrep as appropriate to execute the program
within a shell, where valgrind plus any options is incorporated
into the program invocation and the logfile is treated
appropriately in the program invocation aftermath.
Yes, something like that should work. You can set up your own
implementation of grep, like this:
#! /bin/sh
exec valgrind --log-file=foo /full/path/to/actual/grep "$@"
in a shell script called 'grep', in a different directory, and prepand
that directory to your PATH.
Perhaps Jim has a better way to do it, though -- he's more of a valgrind
wizard than I.
