GC should not zero any memory by itself (it doesn't "clear" freed chunks). 
it looks like the GC is reusing the allocated memory.

you can use `core.memory.GC.addrOf()` to check if your pointers are 
still "alive". you can add calls to `addrOf()` before processing a data, it 
may help to catch the moment data is incorrectly freed (if that happens).
