I remember seeing someone writing a blog post about how they stopped their porting attempts to NetBSD because they said that Valgrind is simply too Linux-specific, and even if a reasonably functional port would be made, maintaining it would be too much work. Granted, this was many years ago -- things might be different now. As an alternative, what's the status of ASan and its cousin sanitizers on NetBSD? -- Kind Regards, Jan
