bug#71289: 30.0.50; cmcheckmagic aborts when tty_write_glyphs writes "Garbage collecting..." in some cases

[Daniel Clemente <n142857@gmail.com>]

Many of the backtraces I'm sending (more below) point to the same
issue: resizing the terminal while the GC messages are being displayed
can make the asserts fail.
Depending on the time I 'catch' it it shows an error or another in the
backtrace.


I still don't have a way to reproduce this, but the following recipe
seems to improve the chances:
(setq garbage-collection-messages t)

Then run some operation that clearly triggers GC. For instance I'm
using this formula (better ideas welcome):
(setq gc-cons-threshold 100000)
(cl-loop for i from 3000000 downto 1 do (+ 2.00 (+ 2.0 (+ 2.0 (+ 2.0
(+ 2.0 2.0))))))

While that operation is running (you'll repeatedly see "Garbage
collecting" "… done"), resize the terminal constantly until it
crashes.
But sometimes I can't reproduce it at all with this method!
And never could I in emacs -Q

But I'm getting tired of manually testing. I may have to automate the resizing.

Anyway this is a very rare bug which probably only happens when GC
messages are enabled, in TTY emacs, and while resizing the terminal.
An obvious workaround if this affects others is disabling
garbage-collection-messages, which seems buggy.
Maybe the problem is in message3_nolog.


Here's are two backtraces of two crashes in different points that I
didn't report yet. I suspect they are all this same bug because they
involve GC.
