OK, I'll do so. But first I will beef it up, add some comments and
security checks and all that. Basically if offers a few modes and
sets up fgfs, valgrind and gdb for each:

  $ debug       # runs "valgrind $fgfs"  (interactive mode)
  $ debug -b    # runs "valgrind $fgfs"  (batch mode)
  $ debug -r    # runs "$fgfs"
  $ debug -g    # runs "gdb $fgfs"
  $ debug -c    # runs "gdb $fgfs core"


While options -r, -g, and -c don't look like a big gain, they guarantee
that always the same binary is run and that you don't have to state the
whole path every time. Additionally -g automatically starts gdb with the
stated fgfs options, so you don't have to set them manually via gdb's
'set args ...'.

Don't expect too much, though. It's just a simple bash script.   :-)
