This change bugs me; are there other tickets for segfaults and crashes in 
Parrot affecting Rakduo besides RT #56448, or am I misunderstanding the 
purpose of the change?

If the default behavior is to work around problems, I fear that we won't get 
the problems fixed.  (See also "Why alternate runcores break far too 
frequently.)
