Comment (by muks):

 The suppressions functionality has been split into another configure
 switch `--enable-valgrind-suppressions`. The rationale for this is:

 * Developers configure with `--enable-valgrind` and run `make check` to
 see all the error reports (`make check` continues testing even if there
 are Valgrind issues). This encourages us to fix these issues, especially
 if we are modifying those parts of the code as part of another bug.

 * Builders configure with `--enable-valgrind --enable-valgrind-
 suppressions` and run `make check` with suppressions. `make check` doesn't
 show existing suppressed issues and stops building if it finds a new
 Valgrind issue that is not suppressed.
