Yay.  I am glad I ran into it myself without having to debug this report

Merry Christmas!

Below is a crash observed in guile-2.2, the git version of 21 December
2016  (last commit 0ce8a9a5e01d3a12d83fea85968e1abb602c9298 Author:
Andy Wingo <wingo <at> pobox.com>
Date:   Sun Dec 18 23:00:07 2016 +0100)

I do not have any simple test-case to reproduce this (yet?) so this is
an FYI bug report.  It was provoked by a stress test, with the goal of
running some 60+ calls to scm_c_catch in 60+ distinct C++ threads.  I
have no idea if this will crash any other version of guile; I have
never done this stress test before.

Here's what GDB says:

Thread 296 "cogserver" received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
