[Insight-developers] Run Valgrind on one test

[kent williams]

I found that valgrind on Mac OS X to be a little wonky, especially with
respect to accurate source line reporting of problems. Maybe it¹s gotten

But then I usually abandon a new tool at the first sign of trouble if I have
a viable alternative ‹ in this case, using valgrind on a linux machine.
