bug#61507: 29.0.60; "free(): invalid pointer" on latest emacs-29 commit when loading init.el

[Simon Pugnet <simon@polaris64.net>]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 14499 bytes --]

Dear Emacs maintainers,

I've just built Emacs from commit 
4bb27a5ca93f8269d9cd4b85fd948176304236eb on the emacs-29 branch and it 
fails to launch with the following message when loading my init.el 
file: -

free(): invalid pointer
Fatal error 6: Aborted

Launching with -q or -Q works fine. Checking out a previous commit 
(cc30422825a5acf460d026bfe912b327b70dedcf) and rebuilding causes 
everything to work as expected again too.

I've tried `make extraclean` and then `make bootstrap` in order to 
clear out any old byte-compiled or native-compiled elisp as I read 
another message earlier saying that a recent change might have caused 
a backwards incompatible change.

Output of `bt full` in GDB: -
