Linking libraries in Valgrind tools creates a lot of problems, and so it not (supposed) to be done. This is the reason why many "standard" lib functions are re-implemented in various files. See e.g. the various coregrind/m_libc*.c files. I guess protections have been implemented in the build system so as to avoid having such linking be done. You might try to bypass it, but will probably later on encounter nasty problems if you succeed to bypass the build system protections.
