There's a saying here that insanity is doing the same thing over and
over again and expecting a different result.  Sometimes the answers
aren't as we like, but they're the only answers out there.  You can
move the tuners to another system and set up a similar use case, and
valgrind there, you can get valgrind working on your current setup.
That's *it*, Udo, there aren't going to be any more suggestions
forthcoming.  They're the only answers out there.

There is a *difference* between contributing to a bounty and
purchasing a feature.  You are *not owed anything* for having
contributed to the bounty.  The bounty paid for the work done to
acheive the feature, and not an ounce more.  In fact, give how much it
was per hour of programming, it was probably a pretty insulting hourly
fee.  That said, the Multirec bounty has NOTHING to do with this case.
 Nobody owes you anything.  As we also say here, "put up or shut up."
