I don't recall any of the GC threads actually going anything in my
thread dump, but it's possible I just missed it. This situation is
trivially reproducable, so I'll check again next time it happens.

If the GC is going into a tight loop to try to free-up space, that seems
like a bug to me... the GC ought to detect that it's not accomplishing
anything and ... well, I guess throw another OOME.
