I believe the only important 1.8 bug still outstanding is the one which causes Scheme data corruption on 64-bit platforms - and which is usually enough to cause the build to fail in snarf-check-and-output-texi.
Is there anything else of equal impact that I've forgotten? I'm not sure how to proceed with debugging this (or rather with advising someone else how to debug it, since I don't have a 64-bit box myself), so does anyone else have ideas? I've been assuming it's a GC problem, i.e. data which should be marked but isn't for some reason, but I guess it need not be; it could just be something modifying part of the Scheme heap by mistake.
