In this context I think that Valgrind is considering that any memory 
load could trap.

For this

movq    40(%rbx), %rax

unless you know that what RBX+40 is pointing to is safe to dereference 
it's not different to dereferencing a pointer.

So I think that the problem is that Valgrind is being cautious and not 
allowing any loads but GCC is accepting what it considers safe loads 
from the stack.

A+
