I've talked about it with Dave a while ago, he said it happens because the threads that
do all the testing sometimes corrupt themselves which result in that error. It shouldn't
be harmful as the thread will just get killed and a fresh one will be started in it's
place.

Since then I set MALLOC_CHECK_=0 to avoid seeing that in my logs.

So yes, it's probably a good thing you're seeing that.


Thanks,
Sasha
