On Centos, apart of the 'signal was supposed to be fatal', do you see
any other error message reported before by Valgrind ?

For what concerns the 'signal was supposed to be fatal', here are a few
questions/things to look at:

  1.  when you had this message, was the --vgdb=yes argument given to
Valgrind ?
   2. If --vgdb=yes was given, was a gdb connected at that time ?
   3. Can you then try with --vgdb=no and see if the same 'signal was
supposed to be fatal' still happens ?
   4. And then can you try with an unpatched 3.6.1 ?

If the problem is only produced with gdbserver, you might try to re-run
this with some Valgrind debugging
(e.g. give -d -d -d arguments to Valgrind). This might give ideas about
what is going on.

          Good evening. I was using Valgrind-3.6.1(with the gdbserver
patch) to test the latest sqlite Write Ahead Logging(WAL) release for
possible heap corrption on Centos Linux Release 5.5 when I encounted the
valgrind message - valgrind the impossible happened main() signal was
supposed to be fatal   --2159  at 0x3802A4C8: report and quit
(m_libcassert.c: 193)
