A new version of the patch to valgrind needed to support WINE has been uploaded
to Sourceforge:
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=710006&group_id=46268&atid=445588
It should apply cleanly to current valgrind CVS.
This version of the patch will now work with an unmodified WINE CVS version. This is because
it now _fully_ implements clone() support - ie it really does create system level threads.
Currently only one thread can run at a time, so there are no locking issues in the main valgrind
code.
To use with WINE, you need to get a CVS checkout of valgrind, then apply the patch using:
export CVSROOT=:pserver:anonymous at cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/valgrind
cvs login
cvs co valgrind
patch -p0 < valgrind-wine.patch.13
then build and install valgrind:
autogen.sh
./configure
make install
Get a CVS checkout of WINE by following the instructions at:
http://www.winehq.com/?page=cvs
then configure (for debugging) and build:
CFLAGS=-g ./configure
make depend && make install
now you can start looking for bugs in WINE, and bugs in your own (debug) Windows code.
Copy any DLLs/EXEs to somewhere WINE can get to them, plus copy any .PDB files that go with
them into the same directory.
Run WINE under valgrind using eg:
valgrind --num-callers=30 --workaround-gcc296-bugs=yes wine notepad.exe
or even:
valgrind --num-callers=30 --workaround-gcc296-bugs=yes --gdb-attach=yes wine notepad.exe
enjoy.
Seeya,
Adam

Real Programmers don't comment their code. If it was hard to write,
it should be hard to read, and even harder to modify.
These are all my own opinions.
