It doesn't make sense to open reports for every test that valgrind 
flags.
For example, all the tasking tests most likely run into the same 
valgrind
manipulation. Please don't open tons of reports for this, it only causes
much extra work in maintaining the bug database.

Maybe it makes more sense to open one bug for all valgrind failures
and then open separate reports for each category of bug that you find to
be valid in at least some case, listing all tests affected by the bug.

Thanks,
