This would be easier to debug if the leak-checking stuff also set the
environment variables needed for and checked the output of leak-gauge.pl, since
then we'd know what page was leaking.

Our test harnesses now automatically use mozleak to dump leak information.

The point of using leak-gauge would be that it would make it a lot easier to tell which page/test caused the leak, in a bunch of cases.  Does mozleak provide that?

Mozleak is just the regular leak log processing of XPCOM_MEM_BLOAT_LOG. I believe it includes leaked urls, but if leak-gauge is providing something in addition and this bug is still valid let's re-open. Though it might be worth investigating what those differences are and seeing if there's an easy way of extracting that out of the normal leak processing.
