FreeBSD and Debugging?

[Brandon Erhart]

Thank you. You are my new god. I had checked out a version of valgrind for 
BSD (one of the patches) and it failed to compile.

Everything seems to be working, except I get this warning at the beginning 
of the program:

"Warning: ignoring --pointercheck=yes, because i386_set_ldt failed (errno=45)"

Any ideas?
