No, when I was chasing the problem, I used valgrind and gdb (seperatlely). Once I had a backtrace, and knew which variable was invalid (thankfully it wasn't corrupted by a stray memory access), it was relatively easier for people to track down how that variable was being used in a bad way. I'll look at electric fence next time I'm struggling with a bad memory crasher.
