What is your target architecture ? Remember that Valgrind only works on
x86, x86_64 and PowerPC 32/64.

Moreover, I don't really see how Valgrind in Buildroot would depend on
a particular version of glibc. Can you be more specific about what
you're doing and the exact result of the commands you're using ?
