No, I mean continue running with them set to t, and see if the crashes
in get_glyph_face_and_encoding are prevented by disabling these
redisplay optimizations.

IOW, if the assertion violation in push_prefix_prop is no longer in
the way, let's go back to our plan of trying to figure out which
redisplay optimizations cause the crashes in
get_glyph_face_and_encoding: first run with all optimizations
disabled, and if that avoids the crashes in
get_glyph_face_and_encoding, re-enable the optimizations one by one to
see which one reintroduces the crashes.

The assertion violations in push_prefix_prop are a separate issue,
unrelated to the original problem we are trying to solve.  It just
distracted us for a while, because you were unable to run without
hitting them.

Thanks.
