Reproducible: Always
Comment 1 Kristian Spangsege 2013-08-23 01:16:14 UTC
Also happens with Valgrind 3.8.1
Also happens when compiling with GCC 4.8.1
Also happens on Linux Mint 14

I compile using: gcc -pthread -g3 t.c
Comment 2 Bart Van Assche 2013-08-24 18:01:37 UTC
Thanks for the report. Does r13511 help ?
Comment 3 Kristian Spangsege 2013-08-25 13:29:02 UTC
Yes. Thanks for fixing it.
