New description:

 Valgrind 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.

 An updated spkg including these two commits on top of 3.7.0 is available
 at

Comment:

 Here comes a slightly updated spkg:
 http://perso.telecom-paristech.fr/~flori/sage/valgrind-3.7.0.p0.spkg

 I've applied the two mentioned patches and rerun autogen.sh to regenerate
 the build system files.
 The package installs and seems functional with my Sage installation.

 Another solution whould be to properly package a recent valgrind svn
 version, although I'd prefer to use this light solution and wait for a
 proper stable release to make a real update to valgrind.
 Feel free to disagree and rant here.
