Issue 1809 is an interesting test of this policy.  `make test` sometimes 
crashes 
for some programmers, making it very hard for them to contribute, but it 
crashes 
in the Guile garbage collection, so we might be powerless to resolve the issue.

Probably this will stay critical until we
 fix it (by some miracle)
 work around it
 assign blame, and push the bug report, upstream, or
 give up
