I just upgraded from version 3.0.1-2 and all my attempts to run this new 
version end up in valgrind receiving the SIGKILL signal.

The output of 'strace -f valgrind' ends with:
readlink("/proc/self/exe", "/usr/bin/valgrind.bin", 4096) = 21
brk(0)                                  = 0x804d000
brk(0x806e000)                          = 0x806e000
execve("/usr/lib/valgrind/x86-linux/memcheck", ["/usr/bin/valgrind.bin"], [/* 
36 vars */]) = 0
+++ killed by SIGKILL +++

and gdb given no information whatsoever.

Running memcheck directly gives the same error, and the strace output is just 
the execve line.

Note that I'm using the 1GB highmem patch that allows computers with up to 1GB 
of RAM to access it as lowmem instead of using the slower highmem code in the 
kernel. The previous Valgrind version didn't work with this patch, but at least 
it gave some form of (not very human-readable) error message. In this regard, 
this version has a regression.

Thanks,
