Description Simon Barner 2004-12-23 15:40:19 UTC 
Valgrind needs a kernel that is built with option USER_LDT to perform some kind of pointer analysis.

The attached patches print a warning in case the running kernel does not
support i386_set_ldt() and advises the user to rebuilt her kernel accordingly.
