New description:
Valgrind 3.7.0 configure script complains about glibc version 2.15 (which
is shipped e.g. with Ubuntu 12.04).
The usual solution is to treat this version as the previous one:
see commit r12323 in the valgrind svn, or tickets on different
distribution bug tracker.
Furthermore, the autogen.sh scripts fails with recent automake version.
This is commit r12396.
All these fixes are in Valgrind 3.8.1.
Try spkg at
http://boxen.math.washington.edu/home/jpflori/valgrind-3.8.1.spkg
Support is annouced upstream for OS X from 10.6.X onward, but building
Valgrind might fail if you're using a non Apple gcc (such as the FSF one
in Sage's spkg).

Comment:
New spkg including 3.8.1 at
http://boxen.math.washington.edu/home/jpflori/valgrind-3.8.1.spkg
Upstream claim to support OSX from 10.6.X onward (10.8.x being currently
limited).
We used to claim from 10.5.x onward.
Could some Apple user check that?
Not sure if you can now build it with FSF GCC (such as the one shipped by
Sage's spkg.
Could someone test that as well?
At least this spkg runs correctly on recent Linuxes with GLIBC 2.15 and
supports AVX instructions.
