bug#12839: 24.3.50; Emacs aborts in GC

[Eli Zaretskii <eliz@gnu.org>]

This bug report will be sent to the Bug-GNU-Emacs mailing list
and the GNU bug tracker at debbugs.gnu.org.  Please check that
the From: line contains a valid email address.  After a delay of up
to one day, you should receive an acknowledgement at that address.

Please write in English if possible, as the Emacs maintainers
usually do not have translators for other languages.

Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug, and
the precise symptoms of the bug.  If you can, give a recipe
starting from `emacs -Q':

(This is being sent from Emacs 24.2, since the trunk is unusable, see
below.  So please take the data reported by report-emacs-bug with a
grain of salt.)

With the current trunk, the first GC in the "emacs -Q" session aborts.
It doesn't matter what triggers the GC.  The backtrace is below.  Let
me know if I can help finding the problem.
