Here is the log, which seem to indicate that the problem occurs curing GC.

/tmp/file23ytoh.0.s 0: doGC
Starting gc.  bytesRequested = 0
Copying GC.
fromSpace = 780000  toSpace = 7c0000
fromSpace size = 909,312  toSpace size = 909,312
gc.c 1129: assert(1 == (header & 1)) failed.

OK, I am installing 20020923. Or should we try the November version 
directly ?
