I don't see how this is counting. I don't see the relationship between bu= g#24478=20 and GC. Bug#24640 was a crash but the bug report was not marked as seriou= s. If we're merely counting GC-related things that broke Emacs, a=20 more-recently-fixed bug related to GC was not reported to bug-gnu-emacs a= t all;=20 it's something I fixed two days ago in the release branch, which fixed a = broken=20 build with the Oracle Developer Studio C compiler. On the other hand, if we're talking about truly major bugs detected by GC= , then=20 Emacs currently doesn't work on FreeBSD 11 arm64 due to GC-related proble= ms that=20 Daniel's patches would fix. This is Bug#24892, marked as serious, and it = pretty=20 clearly outranks all the other bugs mentioned in this thread.
