Good :) Is that what are you shooting for now? Do you need help?

I do not think USE_SYSTEM_MALLOC is going to cut it. Basically, since these are webkit/webcore unit tests, we do want to be able to test in the exact regimes ports compile. This includes running unit tests with global fast malloc/free. The testing framework should not require any specific set of ENABLE_/DISABLE_ defines (individual tests might though).
