Well valgrind almost never "mysteriously crashes". In fact it is usually very verbose when anything goes wrong. So the first thing you should do is to tell us in detail exactly what it said when it stopped. > This happened under the latest 4.8.x kernel which Debian distributed as > part of its testing repository. > > I tried a few things but subsequently reverted to kernel 3.19.5. > Now thunderbird under valgrind works (!). So most likely this is just a new system call that valgrind doesn't handle or something, in which case valgrind will have reported all the details needed to fix it when it stopped.
