Description Igor Melichev 2005-07-21 00:56:09 UTC 
The garbager must detect cases when a pointer points to a less stable space 
(from global to local, from stable to instable). We do have such problems (Bug 
688222, Bug 688140, Bug 688145), which are hard to diagnose without a special 
mechanizm.

The patch has been committed with a disabled stability check due to too many 
problems it detects.
