I didn't mean two books. Maybe something like "Debugging notes" in the book 
with commands which are not in a <screen> window, so you would have to go out 
of your way to copy/paste it. With something like GCC, I don't expect many 
people will be willing to perform a 200+ SBU debugging test... probably less 
than 1% of users would be willing. But with the handfull of suid programs in 
the base running Valgrind on them would probably take less than half an SBU, 
so these could be in a <screen> window for everyone to run.

By the way, the 200+ SBU is for all the checks... assert, fold, gc, gcac, 
misc, rtl, rtlflag, runtime, tree, valgrind, not valgrind alone.
