I do regular bootstraps of mainline all languages on FC3

I'm still observing this problem every now and then. It's not consistent or easily reproducible, unfortunately. I suspect we're using pointers somewhere, and that stack/mmap/whatever address randomization is causing different results. I'm looking into it.

I've found 2 bugs over the last 6 months where the problem is exposed only if two pointers happen to hash to the same bucket. It's occurred to me that doing a bootstrap with all hashtable sizes set to 1 might be a good idea.
