This deepbind change breaks any binary on SuSE that is built using an external
malloc. Examples include Google Chrome and Splunk. There are certainly
others.
The breakage occurs because libresolve, with this fix, will malloc with glibc's
malloc and then free with the external malloc.
Now that Thunderbird has a fix, I highly encourage the patch to be backed out
of glibc in future versions of SuSE. TCMalloc is gaining traction, so there
will be more programs in the future that crash only on SuSE.
