Comment (by arma):

 Yuck. I see the valgrind complaint with -O2 but I do not see it with -O0
 or -O1. So I think you are right.

 I have now added
 {{{
 diff --git a/src/lib/container/namemap.c b/src/lib/container/namemap.c
 index a90057b..263e823 100644
 --- a/src/lib/container/namemap.c
 +++ b/src/lib/container/namemap.c
 @@ -145,7 +145,10 @@ namemap_get_or_create_id(namemap_t *map,
      return NAMEMAP_ERR; /* Can't allocate any more. */

    mapped_name_t *insert = tor_malloc_zero(
 -                       offsetof(mapped_name_t, name) + namelen + 1);
 +            offsetof(mapped_name_t, name) + namelen + 1
 +            /* Unfortunate hack to let valgrind handle SSE optimizations
 +             * in strlen in -O2. See bug 30996. */
 +            + 4);
    memcpy(insert->name, name, namelen+1);
    insert->intval = new_id;
 }}}

 to my list of patches that make moria1 different from master.

 (I started with a slightly more complex hack, with a bufsize variable and
 a -= and a %4, but a hack is a hack so I'll not quibble. :)

 I'll let you decide if you want to close this as a wontfix and I'll just
 maintain my workaround forever in my growing list of differences, or if
 you want to take my hack into Tor itself.
