Title:
  valgrind 3.6.1 source package does not compile due to Linux kernel
  check

Status in “valgrind” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  If you apt-get source valgrind, then try to do a dpkg-buildpackage, it
  fails to configure due to a Linux kernel version check. In valgrind
  trunk, the version check was relaxed since linux kernel 3.0 is
  supposed to be ABI-compatible with kernel 2.6.

  We could just patch in the relaxed version check, but updating the
  package to 3.7-pre would be even better since it squashes a great many
  bugs.
