      After upgrading to Ubuntu 16.04, Valgrind 3.11 has trouble parsing the debug information when there is a problem to report.  It will give error messages like this:

      WARNING: Serious error when reading debug info
When reading debug info from /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/sasl2/libgs2.so.2.0.25:
parse_CU_Header: is neither DWARF2 nor DWARF3 nor DWARF4
