Sorry for being late.  Just wanted to try out this new feature and
ended up reading this old thread.

Why the trailing underscore?  Perhaps add "CHECK" before the equal sign?

Without a $, you'll get nothing. ;-)

('test -n "string"' is always true, unlike 'test -n "$variable"'.)

Would it make sense to restore the previous values?  Hrm, can't think of a use case.

Subject: [PATCH] MALLOC_CHECK: enable it, unless disabled explicitly

The malloc checks in tests are currently disabled.  Actually evaluate
the variable for turning them off and enable them if it's unset.

Also use this opportunity to give it the more descriptive and
consistent name TEST_NO_MALLOC_CHECK.
