The following commit has been merged in the webkit-1.2 branch:
commit dbb1d9f05e6c371111e1e82c0fd872793e976c27
Author: ggaren at apple.com <ggaren at apple.com@268f45cc-cd09-0410-ab3c-d52691b4dbfc>

    Added an ASSERT to catch an implausible but theoretically possible leak.
    
    Reviewed by Dan Bernstein.
    
    In theory, if malloc allocated a UChar buffer directly after a StringImpl,
    the StringImpl might incorrecly assume that the UChar buffer was inline,
    and fail to delete it.
    
    This ASSERT is somewhat academic, since we don't use the same allocator
    in debug builds, but oh well.
    
    * platform/text/StringImpl.cpp:
    (WebCore::StringImpl::StringImpl):
    (WebCore::StringImpl::createUninitialized):
    * platform/text/StringImpl.h: Separated the inline buffer StringImpl
    constructor from the out-of-line buffer StringImpl constructor. Made
    the former ASSERT that its buffer was indeed inline, and the latter ASSERT
    that its buffer was indeed not inline.
