Patch to allow make check to use valgrind

[J.Underwood]

Hi,

Attached is a patch which allows all of the tests to be ran with valgrind in order to check for memory problems. 

This was generated against today's CVS repository.

Basically, if you do

./configure --enable-valgrind-testing 

then, when you run make check valgrind is invoked.

The bad news: valgrind is reporting a fair few problems. I haven't had time to go through them all yet.

Best wishes,
Jonathan.

ps. Actually, even without that argument passed to configure, this patch runs the test programs with
libtool --mode=execute, which is probably the correct thing to do. It probably means we can get rid of all the  test_LDADD hacks in the Makefile.am files, but at the moment I haven't tried this.
