Subject: bug#43389: 28.0.50; Emacs memory leaks using hard disk all time

No, sure doesn't seem like it.  Just hit it in an instance with 
more printfs, and it looks like it leaps right out of some 
sub-call of process_pending_signals(), continuing to run elsewhere 
without finishing garbage_collect().  To me, that means exactly 
one thing: longjmp.

If something manages to longjmp out of garbage_collect() at that 
point, it leaves with consing_until_gc set to HI_THRESHOLD.  This 
must explain why automatic GC stops running for hours or days, but 
manual GCs still work.

I tried setting a breakpoint in longjmp, but it's called 3 times 
for every keypress!  That's inconvenient.  Running one single 
instance now with a conditional breakpoint on longjmp: it will 
break if longjmp is called while it's in unblock_input().
