See the LLDB-GDB command map (http://lldb.llvm.org/lldb-gdb.html) - you have to import a script, and the command is named malloc_info now. Obviously, malloc stack logging still needs to be turned on in the scheme options.

(lldb) script import lldb.macosx.heap
(lldb) malloc_info --stack-history 0x10010d680

Unfortunately, it doesn't show dealloc's - didn't GDBs malloc-history show that as well?
