[I sent this to emacs-pretest-bug a few days ago, but it didn't seem
to arrive. I think my email system was flaking out at the time.]
I installed VM to and played around with it trying to make the
string_free_list/compact_small_strings crash happen. I got a crash on
an invalid cons_free_list; dunno if that's related.
Unfortunately, I have not been able to reproduce the crash. I'll keep
the gdb session up for the next day or so in case someone needs more
information. This Emacs was built about four days ago.
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
