Summary: BinaryTreeDictionary is typedef'ed as AFLBinaryTreeDictionary in vmStructs and in SA we still use old name for that. FreeList now is a template based class which is not reflect in SA type library. When SA does calculation of heap for CMS, the former will cause failure to retrieve BinaryTreeDictionary  sine the rename. The later will fail wherever it is used in SA.
