--- Comment #2 from John Reiser <jrei...@bitwagon.com> ---
Further investigation reveals that this bug may be invalid.  Also, the original
poster on the [valgrind-developers] mailing list omitted or did not emphasize
important details.

First, the OP used valgrind-3.15.0 (valgrind/focal-updates,now
1:3.15.0-1ubuntu9.1 amd64) which is an ancient version.  The current valgrind
version is 3.21; so the used version is at least 6 years old.  In particular,
valgrind-3.15 does not print the instruction stream bytes that correspond to an
unrecognized instruction.  Knowing these bytes is a great help. The OP should
build valgrind-3.21 from source, then re-run.

Next, the supposedly-reproducible test case "valgrind  --trace-children=yes
wine64 a.out.so  > temp.out 2>&1" runs wine64, which requires an actual
"install" of Microsoft Windows (probably version 10).  This can be seen by
careful examination of the temp.out when using valgrind-3.21:
=====  grep Command: temp.out
==19914== Command: wine64 a.out.so
==19914== Command: /opt/wine-stable/bin/wine64-preloader
/opt/wine-stable/bin/wine64 a.out.so
==19916== Command: /opt/wine-stable/bin/wineserver
==19919== Command: /opt/wine-stable/bin/wine64-preloader
/opt/wine-stable/bin/wine64 C:\\windows\\syste
m32\\wineboot.exe --init

- - - - -   grep preloader temp.out

==19914== Command: /opt/wine-stable/bin/wine64-preloader
/opt/wine-stable/bin/wine64 a.out.so
preloader: Warning: failed to reserve range 0000000000110000-0000000068000000
==19919== Command: /opt/wine-stable/bin/wine64-preloader
/opt/wine-stable/bin/wine64 C:\\windows\\syste
m32\\wineboot.exe --init
preloader: Warning: failed to reserve range 0000000000110000-0000000068000000

- - - - - grep err: temp.out
0024:err:environ:run_wineboot failed to start wineboot 40000003
=====

Because I don't have Windows installed, then most of the output from memcheck
(total 7622 lines) complains about bad usage of Windows-reserved memory by
ntdll.so. And because wine64 was not installed with debug symbols, then most of
the tracebacks have scant information.

My version of wine is:
=====
$ dpkg --list | grep wine
ii  wine-stable                            7.0.1~bullseye-1                
amd64        WINE Is Not An Emulator - runs MS Windows programs
ii  wine-stable-amd64                      7.0.1~bullseye-1                
amd64        WINE Is Not An Emulator - runs MS Windows programs
ii  wine-stable-i386:i386                  7.0.1~bullseye-1                
i386         WINE Is Not An Emulator - runs MS Windows programs
ii  winehq-stable                          7.0.1~bullseye-1                
amd64        WINE Is Not An Emulator - runs MS Windows programs
=====

So, the OP should
1) Build and use current valgrind-3.21.
2) Install debug symbols for wine64.
3) Realize that this use case may well be outside the domain of memcheck.
