I'm trying to use Valgrind on an embedded PowerPC system but I'm getting the following errors:
./testprog: symbol lookup error: /usr/local/lib/valgrind/vgpreload_memcheck-ppc32-linux.so: undefined symbol: _restgpr_30_x disInstr(ppc): unhandled instruction: 0x0 primary 0(0x0), secondary 0(0x0) ==466== valgrind: Unrecognised instruction at address 0xffefa74. ==466== at 0xFFEFA74: ???

The instruction is legitimate but Valgrind doesn't handle it, ==466== i.e. it's Valgrind's fault.
