Dear Maintainer,

In Ubuntu, we only have one small delta with Debian: unsetting MALLOC_PERTURB_ for the /pixbuf/cve-2015-4491/original test.  It caused OOM failures on our builders.

I see that you already have 01-disable-oom-test.patch for FreeBSD.  I'm not sure what architectures we hit the OOM with.  But the attached patch was our solution.  Can't hurt, might help with other non-FreeBSD architectures.

Patch originally by Dimitri John Ledkov (xnox).  Thanks for considering it.
