The Windows build of WebKit is crashing on various worker tests.  Disable these tests for now, and fix the problem:

This was caused but the FastMalloc implementation, which did not mix well with the standard Windows allocators. This was an especially large problem for containers and other types where we would sometimes get a mixture of FastMalloc allocation (or deallocation) paired with the system deallocator (or allocator).
