Wow, sounds like you've done some interesting things, and it's interesting to 
see that you got it to work at all with a copying collector.

What changes would this entail? If you're already running Emacs through a 
C-to-C++ converter, why can't the converter arrange for the changes itself?

It is supposed to work. Admittedly it's not tested much. We really need to move 
away from the current dumping model anyway, so CANNOT_DUMP mode will grow in 
importance (in some sense).

Please let us know where, and we'll fix it.
