Thanks for looking into this.

That actually explains why I wasn't able to reproduce this problem on my local machine. Ubuntu 20.04 comes with valgrind 3.15.0, while my local machine has 3.16.1. Upgrading valgrind on Ubuntu 20.04 does fix the issue.

This is good enough for me and I guess this can be closed as "not a bug".
