            Bug ID: 165563
           Summary: DumpRenderTree should stop using CheckedMalloc.
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: WebKit
           Version: WebKit Local Build
          Hardware: Unspecified
                OS: Unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Tools / Tests
          Assignee: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org

1. WebKitTestRunner does not have equivalent behavior to that which is implemented in CheckedMalloc.
2. bmalloc does not honor the settings of CheckedMalloc.

The only time CheckedMalloc comes into play is when DRT uses gmalloc or system malloc.  As a result, DRT exhibits different behavior from the normal way we run our tests.  We should obsolete CheckedMalloc and make DRT behave consistently with WKTR.
