My apologies to your sanity, but with r25175 on osx/intel, this prints:
hey, it's working.
done.
Phooey. Thanks for trying, though. (Did you try it after renaming
orig-structures.pir?)
My sanity is still OK (as much as it ever was), because I can believe
that Parrot compiled under OSX could be different enough to affect GC
bugs. (If this is grasping at straws, I don't wanna hear it. :-),
Maybe I should hack Parrot on OSX . . . ?
