I've already provided valgrind output that shows the gc 
referencing an uninitialized variable.

Please understand -- I don't have infinite time to spend on this 
and I do have alternatives for this work, e.g., nim or go or chez 
scheme. Given the valgrind output indicating what looks like a 
serious error, I'm not going to put the effort into trying to 
reduce this error to an example that I can share fully unless and 
until someone convinces me that what valgrind is saying doesn't 
indicate a bug in the gc.
