Try fprintf(stderr, "%p\n", v); to see if the pointer value has become corrupted somehow.
If all you're passing is one integer, why allocate memory at all?
void *value=(void *)42;
int ivalue=(int)(value);
If that's not all you're doing, post a more complete portion of your code so we can see what's actually going on.

papi_strerror
PAPI_strerror(3) PAPI PAPI_strerror(3)
NAME
PAPI_strerror -
Returns a string describing the PAPI error code.
SYNOPSIS
Detailed Description
C Interface:
#include <papi.h>
char * PAPI_strerror( int errorCode );
Parameters:
code -- the error code to interpret
Return values:
*error -- a pointer to the error string.
NULL -- the input error code to PAPI_strerror() is invalid.
PAPI_strerror() returns a pointer to the error message corresponding to the error code code. If the call fails the function returns the
NULL pointer. This function is not implemented in Fortran.
Example:
* int ret;
* int EventSet = PAPI_NULL;
* int native = 0x0;
* char error_str[PAPI_MAX_STR_LEN];
*
* ret = PAPI_create_eventset(&EventSet);
* if (ret != PAPI_OK)
* {
* fprintf(stderr, "PAPI error %d: %s0, ret, PAPI_strerror(retval));
* exit(1);
* }
* // Add Total Instructions Executed to our EventSet
* ret = PAPI_add_event(EventSet, PAPI_TOT_INS);
* if (ret != PAPI_OK)
* {
* PAPI_perror( "PAPI_add_event");
* fprintf(stderr,"PAPI_error %d: %s0, ret, error_str);
* exit(1);
* }
* // Start counting
* ret = PAPI_start(EventSet);
* if (ret != PAPI_OK) handle_error(ret);
*
