It's still causing problems with jemalloc-enabled applications, https://github.com/wolfcw/libfaketime/issues/130
Comment 3 Pacho Ramos gentoo-dev 2020-08-17 16:53:01 UTC
If I read the bug report properly... that bug is not fixable? :/ (upstream even closed it)

Issue 130 is still a problem.

But I will backport the fix https://github.com/wolfcw/libfaketime/commit/bb635e4367adcac2c1517a698799a60a2bf86e83 for the problem we experienced today in our Gentoo workshop to our stable version. Thank you for the link!

The "intercepting malloc" problem is a complex one and it's not going to be specific to jemalloc.

I don't think it's really worth holding up stabilisation of this forever on. We can consider keeping old versions around though, I guess.
