    That will fail (i.e. core-dump) if someone later uninterns one of those
    symbols pointed to from pure space.

We're talking about a list of the uninterned symbols.  Do you mean, if
someone uninterns an interned symbol with a pure name?  The other part
of the change is to stop that from happening.
