One is a rare crash in GC on copying a compiled method, caused by the VM not making sure that a copy of a method that has been compiled to machine code is an independent copy.  The other is a potential bug in GC with become where a become causes some machine code methods to gain references to young objects but the VM forgets to include these methods in the young referrers (those machine code methods that refer to young objects).

Yes, and i think this would be a first version(s) of Cog VMs, which
could be titled as 'stable'.
Because the bug, which Eliot fixed are really vicious and were plagued
us for more than half of year.

(i preparing an update on jenkins build server, we will see how well
it goes after the fix).
Because now we having a test jobs on jenkins which running tests for
newly built VMs (but i will write more details in separate post).
