Answer 1

This is a known GCC 5.1 bug, not a valgrind bug.

Details here: https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=64535

Possible workarounds: Downgrade GCC to an earlier version or wait for Valgrind to update a fix for this error. Both solutions are being worked on by their respective communities.
