Well, for at least one remaining case it seems that type (parts) are
re-used differently, so the input at the LTO-out streaming has
type (parts) duplicated (or not) dependent on GC.  The PR tells
about the case I didn't finish tracking down.

The case fixed is somebody modifying sth in place we stored into
hash tables for re-use.  Not sure what the second case is.

I still think we should try to understand why trunk is not affected?
