      Protect call-with-new-thread data from GC.
      
      * libguile/threads.c (struct launch_data): Add prev/next pointers.
        (protected_launch_data, protected_launch_data_lock): New static vars.
        (protect_launch_data, unprotect_launch_data): New functions.
        (really_launch, scm_sys_call_with_new_thread): Preserve launch data
        from GC.  Thanks to Linas Vepstas for the report!

Cheers,

Andy
