You can't use Helgrind properly on gcc/g++ compiled OpenMP code as-is,
because it doesn't understand the custom synchronisation primitives
used by libgomp.so, the support library.

One solution which is known to work fairly well is to build gcc with
--disable-linux-futex for the top level configure script.  This causes
libgomp to use pthreads primitives only, which it can see and "understand".
Worth a try.
