+            operationOptimize() should defer the GC for a while.

+            Reviewed by Filip Pizlo.
+    
+            Currently, operationOptimize() only defers the GC until its end.  As a result,
+            a GC may be triggered just before we return from operationOptimize(), and it may
+            jettison the optimize codeBlock that we're planning to OSR enter into when we
+            return from this function.  This is because the OSR entry on-ramp code hasn't
+            been executed yet, and hence, there is not yet a reference to this new codeBlock
+            from the stack, and there won't be until we've had a chance to return out of
+            operationOptimize() to run the OSR entry on-ramp code.
+    
+            This issue is now fixed by using DeferGCForAWhile instead of DeferGC.  This
+            ensures that the GC will be deferred until after the OSR entry on-ramp can be
+            executed.
