I agree and have learned to take the bad with the good. Sorry to be a
broken record, but just in case you missed earlier in the thread, you,
personally, shouldn't need to mess with the environment, just do

libtool --mode=execute valgrind /path/to/example

Similarly for gdb. Note that once the everything is installed, that's the
true binary, not autotools fake one.
