Description Bart Van Assche 2008-05-19 10:42:05 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE 3.5.8)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs
Compiler:          gcc version 4.2.3 
OS:                Linux

The program VEX/auxprogs/genoffsets.c has to be compiled and has to be run natively during compilation of VEX, which makes cross-compilation of VEX and Valgrind impossible. Please review and apply the patch svn://svn.valgrind.org/valgrind/branches/CROSS_COMPILATION/vex-cross-compilation.patch, which solves this issue.
