Valgrind ordinarily works by preloading a shared object to replace malloc,
free and friends. Some combinations of toolchain/libc allow this to build
with -static, but others complain.
Since it makes little sense to try to build this on a static-only system,
this patch disables it on static platforms entirely.

v1 - theoretically we could try to support valgrind static builds on
platforms where it appears to work (eg i686). However this would add a lot
of conditional stuff, so I figured it would be easier just to disable it
outright.
