With the parameter --valgrind-massif, the configure script sets
reasonable defaults that can be overridden as explained in
the documentation.

 The configure script provides a shortcut for using valgrind to spot bugs
 related to memory handling. Just add the option
-@code{--toolchain=valgrind-memcheck} to your configure line, and
-reasonable defaults will be set for running FATE under the supervision
-of the @strong{memcheck} tool of the valgrind suite.

 In case you need finer control over how valgrind is invoked, use the
 @code{--target-exec='valgrind <your_custom_valgrind_options>} option in
