Android valgrind build fails

Question

Hello I\'m trying to build valgrind for android-arm. On Linux Mint 13 it fails with:

$ make
echo \"# This is a generated file, composed of the following supp

For building and installing Valgrind for Android use the bash script below, which I prefer to call build_valgrind.sh

To run with RUN_HELLO_JNI_THROUGH_VALGRIND=true you need two additional scripts (bootstrap_valgrind.sh, start_valgrind.sh) in the directory you run the script below from.

Running the script with the RUN_HELLO_JNI_THROUGH_VALGRIND=true flag will build the hello-jni application from the samples directory inside the Android NDK HOME, deploy it to the phone and run it through Valgrind, using either callgrind or memcheck tool, which you can specify in the start_valgrind.sh script.

The other two scripts are described here: https://stackoverflow.com/a/19235439/313113

Here's my directory structure:

|-- build_valgrind.sh (the script below)
|-- bootstrap_valgrind.sh (second script from https://stackoverflow.com/a/19235439/313113)
|-- start_valgrind.sh (first script from https://stackoverflow.com/a/19235439/313113)
|-- valgrind-3.10.0 (will be extracted by build_valgrind.sh)
`-- valgrind-3.10.0.tar.bz2 (will be downloaded by build_valgrind.sh)

I've tested that its working (memcheck and callgrind tools) on a Samsung Galaxy Nexus device with CyanogenMod 10.2.1 and Android 4.3.1 and CyanogenMod 11 20140804 snapshot, Android 4.4.4

You can see the file size of the generated output with: adb shell ls -lR "/sdcard/*grind*"

The build_valgrind.sh script:

#!/usr/bin/env bash

#set -x 

function extract()
{
     if [ -f "$1" ] ; then
         case "$1" in
             *.tar.bz2)   tar xvjf "$1"     ;;
             *.tar.gz)    tar xvzf "$1"     ;;
             *.bz2)       bunzip2 "$1"      ;;
             *.rar)       unrar x "$1"      ;;

             *.7z)        7z x "$1"         ;;
             *)           echo "$1 cannot be extracted via >extract<" ;;
         esac
     else
