Interesting. Thanks!
The reason for that fix were random crashes I experienced with
Emacs/master. I then found this using ASAN.
I wonder why I didn't catch that with ASAN on the emacs-28 branch.
Maybe because I also had ENABLE_CHECKING set, which made Emacs slow with
five o, together with ASAN and -g0. Could be a timing thing, I'm too
lazy to check.
Anyway, I guess that is a good candidate for back porting to master, if
Eli and Lars agree.
