I guess you could run "time ./temacs --batch -l loadup
--temacs=pbootstrap" directly (in src/)...
I realize that's not an answer to your question, but IME, dumping bugs
will often lead to immediate failures to bootstrap, whereas GC bugs
are tricky and don't. Since this bug doesn't affect GC in any way, I
think we've done enough initial testing.
