* For all tools and the core, don't show statistics when -v is in
effect. Instead, try to restrict -v to mostly user-useful
stuff.
* A new flag --stats=no|yes [no] produces statistics output instead.
* Fix longstanding problem in that Memcheck's leak checker ran after
the core's error manager module shut down, thereby not showing use
counts of leak suppressions. This fixes#186790.
* As a consequence, the leak checker text output of Memcheck has
changed a bit -- leak check is done before the final error
summary is done (much more logical), and the output has been
tidied up a bit.
* Helgrind, Drd and Ptrcheck now also print "For counts of
detected and suppressed errors, rerun with: -v", which makes
them consistent with Memcheck in this regard. These are
filtered out by the regtest filter scripts.
For all tools except Memcheck, the regtests are unchanged. On
Memcheck regtests still fail due to rearrangements of the leak
checker output. This will be fixed by a followup commit.

- Match the ordering of the non-tool-specific options in the usage message
with the order in the user manual. As a result, we now always print
--alignment and --trace-malloc in the core's usage messages, which saves
malloc-replacing tools from doing it themselves (and brings it in line
with options that only apply to error-collecting tools).
- Improved the presentation of the Vex options with --help-debug.
- Removed documentation of -d in the manual because it's a debugging-only flag.
- Documented --read-var-info in the manual. This fixes bug 201169.
- Renamed --auto-run-dsymutil as --dsymutil and documented it in the usage
message.
- Fixed an XML error in manual-core-adv.xml.

command difficult. Also, when wrapping I was failing to factor in the
escape chars needed for chars like ' '; now I don't need to. And this
means the 'long-command' test is no longer necessary. In other words,
favour utility and simplicity over aesthetics.
Also, the "Command:" line wasn't being wrapped in <line></line> in XML
output. It now is.

VALGRIND_{PRINTF,PRINTF_BACKTRACE,INTERNAL_PRINTF} were no longer appending
newlines. This meant that --trace-malloc=yes spewed everything onto a
single line, among other things.
Rather than adding the newline back in, I chose to offically change their
behaviour to not add the newlines, as this is more flexible (and the reason
for the underlying VG_(message) change). I updated all the relevant places
I could find.

- There were detailed descriptions of all the tools in the Quick Start
Guide, the Manual introduction, and the start of each tool chapter. To
avoid duplication/overlap, I removed these altogether from the Quick Start
Guide, and shortened them in the intro.
- Improved the description of what errors Memcheck can find.
- Made all tool chapters start with "Overview" section, for consistency.
- Made the "run with --tool=XXX" bit consistent in each tool chapter.
- Made all tool chapter titles match the description given when running them.
- Added BBV to the User Manual intro.
- Generally clarified, updated, and future-proofed various bits of text in
the Quick Start Guide and User Manual introduction.
Also:
- Changed Nulgrind's start-up description to "the minimal Valgrind tool".
- Fixed some punctuation in the usage message.

of being less specific.

and the PID was removed. This commit adds it back in. It also adds a basic
test that would have detected this regression, and also the breakage in bug
200990.

following improvements:
- Arch/OS/platform-specific files are now included/excluded via the
preprocessor, rather than via the build system. This is more consistent
(we use the pre-processor for small arch/OS/platform-specific chunks
within files) and makes the build system much simpler, as the sources for
all programs are the same on all platforms.
- Vast amounts of cut+paste Makefile.am code has been factored out. If a
new platform is implemented, you need to add 11 extra Makefile.am lines.
Previously it was over 100 lines.
- Vex has been autotoolised. Dependency checking now works in Vex (no more
incomplete builds). Parallel builds now also work. --with-vex no longer
works; it's little use and a pain to support. VEX/Makefile is still in
the Vex repository and gets overwritten at configure-time; it should
probably be renamed Makefile-gcc to avoid possible problems, such as
accidentally committing a generated Makefile. There's a bunch of hacky
copying to deal with the fact that autotools don't handle same-named files
in different directories. Julian plans to rename the files to avoid this
problem.
- Various small Makefile.am things have been made more standard automake
style, eg. the use of pkginclude/pkglib prefixes instead of rolling our
own.
- The existing five top-level Makefile.am include files have been
consolidated into three.
- Most Makefile.am files now are structured more clearly, with comment
headers separating sections, declarations relating to the same things next
to each other, better spacing and layout, etc.
- Removed the unused exp-ptrcheck/tests/x86 directory.
- Renamed some XML files.
- Factored out some duplicated dSYM handling code.
- Split auxprogs/ into auxprogs/ and mpi/, which allowed the resulting
Makefile.am files to be much more standard.
- Cleaned up m_coredump by merging a bunch of files that had been
overzealously separated.
The net result is 630 fewer lines of Makefile.am code, or 897 if you exclude
the added Makefile.vex.am, or 997 once the hacky file copying for Vex is
removed. And the build system is much simpler.

I tried using 'svn merge' to do the merge but it did a terrible job and
there were bazillions of conflicts. So instead I just took the diff between
the branch and trunk at r10155, applied the diff to the trunk, 'svn add'ed
the added files (no files needed to be 'svn remove'd) and committed.

traces, and a few other unreliable pieces. This allowed most of the tests
to be reduced to a single .stderr.exp file. It also means that all Helgrind
tests succeed on my AMD64/Linux box when configured with --enable-only32bit,
whereas previously 20 of them failed.
Also tweaked a couple non-Helgrind filters a tiny bit.
