I believe GateKeeper Documentation does state what it traps.  Looking at
GateKeeper's Type resource #1, I see: CODE, INIT, DRVR, cdev, RDEV, FKEY,
FMTR, LDEF, MBDF, MDEF, MMAP, ADBS, CACH, CDEF, atpl, NBPC, PACK, PDEF,
PTCH, SERD, WDEF, mppc, snth, CUST, XCMD, XFCN.  This is documented at the
end of the on-line help.  So... GateKeeper thinks that it does trap WDEF.
