All of our dashboard machines are fully up to date driver-wise, so I'll
assume its a bug Apple is unaware of, and will log it with them.

We see the test fail on G5's with ATI Radeon 9600 XT and Intel iMacs
with ATI Radeon X1600, but pass on the G4 with an nVidea GeForce 2MX.

Glen, TestOpacity also fails on stout.atami, what model is it?

It also fails on "SINTEF. Health. MedTech-MacPro. Xeon. OSX" and
"iMac_intel. SINTEF".  Anyone here know what model GPUs they have?

Seems like this malloc error is unrelated to TestOpacity, still it would
be great if you could try it out.  It's low hanging fruit. :)

Thanks,
