Created by wolfsage@gmail.com

The included patch allows test.valgrind to run tests in parallel.

Valgrind output for each test will be printed out after the test
completes, with the name of the test prefixing every line.

Example usage might be:

TEST_JOBS=8 make test.valgrind VALGRIND='valgrind -q' 2>&1 | tee out.txt

-q is needed to ensure only *errors* are captured, otherwise the output will
be much louder than it already is. (Perhaps this should be the default mode?)

From @wolfsage

The previous patch didn't clean out the valgrind-current files before
running tests, so output from previous test runs could interfere.

This patch fixes that.

From @wolfsage

While I think this patch makes parallel testing possible and testing
of valgrind faster, it abandons some of the expected behavior of
t/TEST with regards to valgrind tests. (Detecting/reporting on
failures/warnings. Renaming of output files. Etc)

I need to consider this more thoroughly (but by all means, use this
until I've submitted a more correct one, hopefully in the next
day/week.)
