I'm very interested to see that someone has valgrind working on ppc. Is 
this an embedded system (8xx?). If so I'd appreciate some pointers on 
how to get it to work!

I have valgrind-2.1.0-ppc cross compiling OK but I'm a bit stumped on 
how to preload libraries etc to get it to do anything useful!!
