Could you please replace that code with:

  if (!NILP (w->next)
      && !vectorlike_marked_p (&XWINDOW (w->next)->header))
    emacs_abort ();

And see if Emacs ever aborts?

I just remembered that the old garbage collector does not work the same
way as the one in my branch, so that bug shouldn't be possible.
