Ok, thanks.

Of course isn't just such a problem, otherwise you would have posted to 
the valgrind mailing list, right? ;)
But unfortunately, for some reason, the only useful debug info that we 
have so far, I cannot reproduce.

It would be useful to know at least something more about your 
application, for instance whether is heavily multithreaded or not. 
Really, you understand that if we cannot reproduce at least the valgrind 
messages we don't have much, concretely.

Thanks,
Paolo.
