Running Matlab 2011b or 2012a under Purify

I know TMW offers no support for this issue, but I was wondering if anybody had success instrumenting and running Matlab 2011b or 2012 under latest PurifyPlus from Rational (v. 7.0.1)?
I want to perform memory integrity checks for my S-Fcns and Mex files. We use 2011b as a baseline, but I also have access to 2009b. 2009b instruments and runs under Purify with no problem. 2011b (and above), however, instruments, but fails to run throwing an unhandled null pointer exception. I have fragments of log files below is somebody is interested in taking a closer look. The problem boils down to a functions call in libmwservices.dll called svMatlabDescription. This is not happening in 2009b, and is in 2011b.
Any suggestion is appreciated.

=======================================
DETAILS:
(I have full logs from both Visual Studio 2010 and Purify for both 2009b and 2011b. I have no option to attach them to this post, but I can provide them if somebody is interested. I am only pasting relevant fragments of these logs here.)
1. Fragment of Visual Studio log where the problem occurs:
a. Uninstrumented run (runs OK):
