While investigating some failures, I found some cases where runtests.py complains "missing output line for total leaks!", when it's clearly in the output. Example from http://tinderbox.mozilla.org/showlog.cgi?log=Firefox/1221925353.1221933011.32720.gz&fulltext=1#err46 Scroll up and you'll find: 0 TOTAL -4 63920 -1005666652 .... Looks like the problem is the regex runtests.py uses to find the "TOTAL" line. It's not expecting negative numbers. dbaron says this can happen when bogus addref/release patterns confuse tracerefcount. The script should catch these, and handle as a "omgwtf something is wrong" case.

How convenient, dbaron is a Test Harness peer. :-) [I should note I haven't run this yet, but it seems like an obvious enough change.]

Attached patch Patch v.2Splinter Review
Added another check for one of the columns that might be negative, and tested that it works with and without negative values in the output.
