Running bash under valgrind gives "invalid free()"

See https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=849517

​I can reproduce this also in bash 4.3 as supplied with Ubuntu 16.04, and in a build of 4.4 from source on my Ubuntu system.

​As stated in the bug report, the bug causes problems beyond bash, as it causes build systems to think that valgrind is not working, and hence run tests without it.

I searched the bug-bash archives and couldn't find a previous report of this particular problem (I found mentions of other valgrind diagnostics).
