The Valgrind tool fails to manage its termination when QEMU raises the
 signal SIGKILL in the multi-threaded process. The bug has been
 reported to the Valgrind maintainers and was registered as Bug 409141.
 Let's exclude such test cases from running under the Valgrind until
 new release of it because checking for the memory issues is covered by
 other test cases.

...Hey! It looks like they may have fixed it. However, we don't know if
the user has a properly fixed version of valgrind or not.

How long do we keep these workarounds in-tree?

This seems like the sort of thing that's going to get forgotten about
quickly. It's not clear (if you're reading the test source) why we're
setting VALGRIND_QEMU="" before these invocations.

Is it possible to create some kind of _NO_VALGRIND() shim that has some
comment in it, like:

# Valgrind bug #409141 https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=409141
# Until valgrind 3.16+ is ubiquitous, we must work around a hang in
# valgrind when issuing sigkill. Disable valgrind for this invocation.

VALGRIND_QEMU="" exec "$@"

(something like that.)

This way:

(1) The workaround is being clearly demonstrated as a bit of a hack
(2) The shim explains what the hack is for
(3) When we decide we no longer need the hack, we can pull it out of a
central location and easily grep to find callers of the shim.
