[Python-Dev] Python under valgrind

[Kristján Valur Jónsson]

Probably because of the object memory allocator.  It reads the start of memory pages to see if a block belongs tot the obmalloc system or not.
You want to remove the following line:
#define WITH_PYMALLOC 1
>From pyconfig.h if you intend to run using valgrind or say, purify.

Thanks for the suggestion (as well as to Gustavo and Victor), but my 
question wasn't about how to suppress the messages, but about why the 
messages appear in the first place.  I think my last paragraph answers 
my own question, but I'm not sure.
