Comment (by raimue@…):

 Please remember to use WikiFormatting.

 Thanks for the extended log showing the problem. As said, I can't
 reproduce this in the same way:

 {{{

 }}}

 However, I get the same message if I add the option mentioned in your
 output. That is why I assumed you had an alias which included this.

 {{{
 $ /opt/local/bin/valgrind --gen-suppressions=yes --tool=massif true
 valgrind: Bad option: --gen-suppressions=yes
 valgrind: Can't use --gen-suppressions= with Massif
 valgrind: because it doesn't generate errors.
 valgrind: Use --help for more information or consult the user manual.
 }}}

 Running with the full path should have avoided any aliases, so I am still
 not sure why you see this on your system.
