    Thanks. Am I missing something, or is there still no reliable repro? I
    feel like gdb's reverse debugging support would be helpful here.

I don't know how much time passes between the vector gets freed
and when the symbol gets marked.  I suspect it is the time
between one GC and the next, which would be millions of instructions.
Can reverse execution handle that?
