that specified shared objects contain specified symbols. Along with a
couple of regtests that unfortunately will fail on MacOSX.

Specifies a comma-separated list of executable-names
(with "*" and "?" wildcards allowed) that should not be traced into
even when --trace-children=yes. Modified version of a patch
from Bill Hoffman. Fixes#148932.

* 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.

- 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.

stacks. Instead of hardwiring the main thread stack to a max of 16MB
and segfaulting the app beyond that point, allow the user to specify
the main stack size using the new flag --main-stacksize=<number>.
If said flag is not present, the current default, which is "MIN(16GB,
current ulimit -s value)", is used.

go, but realistically we can't implement it portably, at least without
considerable performance overhead and some additional complexity.

overhaul of the thread support. Many things are now probably broken,
but at least with --tool=none, simple and not-so-simple threaded and
non-thread programs work.

--logfile-fd --> --log-fd
--logfile --> --log-file

to be consistent with each other and other options (esp. --input-fd). Also
renamed some related variables. The old names still work, for backwards
compatibility, but they're not documented.

- If no tool is specified, V now gives a short message and a list of
available tools. This was meant to happen previously, but a bug prevented
it from working properly; it gave the usage message instead.
- If a bad option is given, V now gives a short message rather than the full
--help. This make V consistent with all other programs I looked at.
- Now returning 0 when you do 'valgrind --help' and 'valgrind --version'
as other programs do.
- Removed VG_(startup_logging)() and VG_(shutdown_logging)() as they were
empty and have been for a long time (always?).
- Added various tests for these scenarios. Had to change the regtest
script slightly to allow for malformed command lines.
This addresses bug (wishlist) #82999.
