I didn't get to this before you committed it, and that's OK.
I had some tiny style quibbles. Mostly it just seemed to me
that at least the lower layers of this where it's really just
a generic "command prefix before running a binary" should be
named generically. That could be plumbed all the way up to
configure, as --enable-tests-prefix="...". Then you can add
--enable-tests-valgrind as a shorthand for a particular value
of the prefix.
The log entry mentions valgrind-wrapper.sh but no such file nor
use of it appears in the patch.
Sharp eyes! I did remove that from the log message/ChangeLog before
pushing the commit. At first I had written the support as a wrapper
script, but as it turned out, it was actually easier (and more generic)
without. I don't immediately know of any other "test-prefixers" we could
use/try. Are there any that would be beneficial to run make check tests
with?
Thanks,
Mark
