This seems to be the culprit. valgrind seems to get confused by the loader
installed by that package.
I can't think of any reason as to why, on a multi-arched amd64 system, you'd
want to install the libc6-amd64:i386 package along with libc6:amd64 though, and
to be honest I'm not even sure this actually qualifies as valgrind bug.
Also, trying to remove that package I somehow fucked up the chroot I was working
on, so be careful if you want to get rid of it.

I downgraded it to normal as it only affects your particular setup.
