Comment(by nominolo):

 Simon M. said he had a script to track down memory corruption.  I ran it
 under valgrind but there was no useful output.  Running it under `gdb`
 just tells me the error occurs inside GC, so that's no new information,
 either.

 The test case uses various libraries that use unsafe operations somewhere
 underneath, so it may well be that one of these libraries is to blame.
