One problem is output of multiple (batched, like "make subsequentcheck")
valgrind'ed invocations of soffice.bin is lost.

Another problem is attaching a debugger (VALGRIND_OPTS=--db-attach=yes)
does not work.

So, meanwhile I had thought that I can somehow live with the
inconvenience the automatic-valgrind.log feature brings, trying to
remember to remove the relevant line from the soffice script in
scenarios where it matters.

But today I had to find out that even a single invocation of the
sw/qa_complex test internally starts multiple soffice instances in a
row, and coming back to a multi-hour valgrind run of that test all I got
was a most unhelpful valgrind.log for a single soffice invocation.

This feature turns out to be a real productivity problem for me after
all. Petr, can you please re-consider whether it is really too much to
ask your clients to type

VALGRIND=memcheck soffice 2>valgrind.log

instead of

VALGRIND=memcheck soffice

Removed that feature now, after yet another round of frustrations. <http://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/commit/?id=4f00cdfec54a574e25f47dab2f65b299ea64ec73>
