uninitialized value - Valgrind

I have a strange problem with my Valgrind on Yosemite. Here is my simple program:

#include <stdio.h>
int main() {
    printf("Hello world %d\n", 123);
    return 0;
}

Compiling it and then running it using Valgrind I get the following:

==48900== Conditional jump or move depends on uninitialised value(s)

Any advice?

This is useful: Yosemite and Valgrind Whilst it may have been the case in past OS X release cycles that Valgrind took a period of time before achieving reasonable feature support, basic OS X 10.10 support is already available in Valgrind trunk due to significant work on pre-release Yosemite – Dave Qorashi
