It is used in temacs because otherwise we'd not know how to record
allocated memory in the dumped Emacs. Doing so requires control on
the allocation details, and we can only do that with code we ourselves
maintain.
You will see that in a build with pdumper gmalloc.c is not compiled at
all.

It is only needed in the unexec build, AFAIU.
