  Core and builtins
  
+ - Fixed two bugs reported as SF #535905: under certain conditions,
+   deallocating a deeply nested structure could cause a segfault in the
+   garbage collector, due to interaction with the "trashcan" code;
+   access to the current frame during destruction of a local variable
+   could access a pointer to freed memory.
+ 
  - The optional object allocator has been enabled by default.
