Valgrind picks up the file when you give the option
--suppressions=<file>. I don't see why this wouldn't work in out-of-tree
builds, since the matching is (in this case) made only based on the
function name where the error happens.

Right.

Could there be a comment in the file as well what it
is about and how to use it?

Probably. I didn't notice any information about comments when I read the
syntax documentation, but I didn't particularly look for that either.
I'll add a comment in v2 if I figure out how to do that.

Looking at /usr/lib/valgrind/default.supp, it seems like # indicates a comment line.

(Or maybe we could even get some valgrind developer to fix the root cause, that would be even better...maybe we can grab someone in Düsseldorf, if they're present?)
