Looks to me like apropos-safe-documentation, native compiled, has a
problem here and gets an EXC_BAD_ACCESS. But that's all I can see. It's
not even clear to me if this is GC-related or not.

Can you reproduce this? If yes, can you give me a recipe?

Pip, should I perhaps merge with current master? I think there have been
fixes to the native compiler on master, not sure though.
