That looks the right sort of fix to me at a quick glance.  There's
clearly a gcpro missing somewhere.  Mapping over keymaps might cause
autoloading as a possible source of GC.

However, I'm surprised it worked at all.  The head code hasn't built
for some time on any of the three 64-bit systems I have (Solaris,
Irix, Tru64 -- I don't have 64-bit userland installed on Debian
sparc).  This is apparently due to GC changes.  It isn't a gcpro
issue, anyway.  I'd hoped someone with an interest in ia64 would fix
it :-(.

Why not sort out conservative marking on ia64, by the way?  See
comments probably in alloc.c and s/gnu-linux.h.

[This is one of the things that would just fall out of using the Boehm
collector, and I'm sure effort would be better spent on making that
work than messing with the current GC.]
