To some extent, perhaps.

But it's less a lack of interest and more an unwillingness to ignore
the licensing issues.  `Modern' GCC is licensed under the GPLv3.  I
have tried twice to understand that license and people tell me I've
still missed major pieces.  If I have to hire a lawyer to figure out
the license, it's not suitable for my purposes - in my opinion not
suitable for any open-source work, actually - no matter what it turns
out to permit.

(As this implies, my experience with valgrind has, of course, been
entirely at work.)
