Valgrind is in the SDK repos and it works fine within scratchbox. It's a really useful tool for debugging segfaults and memory leaks. It's like an automatic screwup detector for C programming!

Of course, python is great. I mainly use C when there are no python bindings available for some library that I want to use.
