SpurSelectiveCompactor:
Add a guard to followForwardingPointersInStackZone: to avoid scanning teh stack zone when it is empty because the system is snapshotting.

  	"Spur's become: is lazy, turning the becommed object into a forwarding object to the other.
  	 The read-barrier is minimised by arranging that forwarding pointers will fail a method cache
  	 probe, since notionally objects' internals are accessed only via sending messages to them,
  	 the exception is primitives that access the internals of the non-receiver argument(s).
  
  	 To avoid a read barrier on bytecode, literal and inst var fetch and non-local return, we scan
  	 the receivers (including the stacked receiver for non-local return) and method references
  	 in the stack zone and follow any forwarded ones.  This is of course way cheaper than
  	 scanning all of memory as in the old become."
