Some comments on valgrinding Squid

The regex included in GNU libc seems to stink badly when it comes to
memory management.. compile Squid with --enable-gnuregex (requires
current CVS sources).

The use of mutexes in many parts of GNU libc also seems to smell
badly. Use the suppressions sent on IRC some days ago to make
valgrind shut up about these.

To make sense of stack traces on RedHat Linux start valgrind with
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/debug. Also applies when debugging Squid
with GDB without valgrind.

Henrik
