I think that efence would not significantly increase the runtime of our

It is true that we had a pool of unused mds to reduce the pressure on
malloc.  That would mean that efence would be ineffective for most mds.
I think that Andrew removed this pool.  In any case, there was a
compile-time flag to remove it.

Was it removed? I vaguely remember it being removed but restored?

Recommendation: enable efence in test suite.

That I agree with. Andrew, can you change the run on testing.libreswan
to set EFENCE=-lefence either on the cmdline or in Makefile.inc.local ?
