I think you misunderstand. Valgrind is not for "proving" there is a
leak, it's for *finding* the leak. A bug report (about a memory leak)
without valgrind logs is useless to the developers.
So the answer to your question is: no, it's not time to open a ticket.
If you can get valgrind logs, *then* open a ticket. If not, just sit
tight and wait for somebody who can.

P.S. In the interest of full-disclosure, I'm not a MythTV developer, but
I *am* a developer.
