bug#58232: 29.0.50; alloc.c:879: assertion failed: 0 < item_size && 0 < nitems_incr_min && 0 <= n0 && -1 <= nitems_max

[Visuwesh <visuweshm@gmail.com>]

[ Not sure if emacs-devel was preferred for assertion violations.  ]

With a build with checking enabled, I get the following message when I
launch Emacs.

    % emacs -Q
    alloc.c:879: Emacs fatal error: assertion failed: 0 < item_size && 0 < nitems_incr_min && 0 <= n0 && -1 <= nitems_max
    Aborted

However, if I attach gdb to Emacs and launch it, it starts just fine.
IME, this goes away when I restart my laptop.  In case it matters,
`free -h' output is below

    % free -h
                   total        used        free      shared  buff/cache   available
