In this scenario the Write|Datatype|() functions of Pickle were hooked to use abnormal values.

Let me know if you need further information.
I should perhaps mention that WriteBool() wasn't touched, the value comes from the outside.
We're correctly sanitizing values in the parent process --- we detect that the child has written invalid data to the pipe.

However, after we detect that condition, the *parent* aborts.  Instead, it should kill the child with fire.
this is a reproducible crash?  Sounds similar to 780219 so, i'll minus.  Please renom if you disagree.

Is there a test case for this?
Abort in DCHECK() with a bool value. Marked as duplicate of bug 807738.
