I know this is automated but I feel lije it would be sensible to scan
the logs for well known bugs so that you don't end up filing bugs
against every package broken by valgrind's missing support for the new
NOP sequences in binutils.
Like this work is tracked in
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1057693
and normally we would forcemerge this into it.
