I added some debug output to GC_SysVGetDataStart and it appears to  
return okay, that is it returns 0x64d000 (which it gets by calling  
GC_find_limit(0x66a778, FALSE). I tried patching GC_find_limit to  
match CVS (a boundary check was added) to no avail, also adding some  
new assertions for the signal handling but they do not fail.

Maybe gdb is simply confused because of the SIGSEGV signal handler in  
GC_SysVGetDataStart and does not show where the actual segfault  
happens? Are there any options or commands that might help?
