On some (64-bit) systems, sizeof(int) != sizeof(long), and this can
cause crashes because in-use lisp objects can get prematurely gc'd (and
0xdeadbeef'd). This occurs because the memory_description for the
Gap_Array structure incorrectly describes some members as XD_INT's
(32-bit objects), when they should actually be XD_ELEMCOUNT's and
XD_BYTECOUNT's (both 64-bit objects), as that is how they are declared
in the structure.

-- ben-separate-stderr-improved-error-trapping this is an old workspace, very close to being done, containing - subprocess stderr output can be read separately; needed to fully implement call-process with asynch. subprocesses. - huge improvements to the internal error-trapping routines (i.e. the routines that call Lisp code and trap errors); Lisp code can now be called from within redisplay. - cleanup and simplification of C-g handling; some things work now that never used to. - see the ChangeLogs in the workspace.
