Thanks! Unfortunately, it looks like this is a problem with the
garbage collector. (If you don't know what that means, basically, we
periodically trawl through the list of *all* Lisp objects for ones
that there are no active pointers to, and return them to the list of
free memory blocks. Only after that happens---typically long after
the bug bites---can a "freed Lisp_Object" error surface.) Hard to
diagnose.
It may take a while to work through this. :-(
