I added Pierre's failed case to
gcc/testsuite/melt/tgissue-pv-{1m.melt,1c.c,1run.sh} and I added some
tweeks in MELT gcc/melt-runtime.c which apparently correct the issue.
Honestly, I am not entirely sure to understand what the bug was (it is
related to garbage collection of finalized MELT special values, such as
boxed FILE-s or boxed PPL data) and if I corrected it, but at least
Pierre's test seems to pass.
The better GCC MELT branch is svn revision 171181.
I discussed (with Pierre) the issues on gcc-melt-french@googlegroups. I
tried to summarize each french message in a short english abstract. See
the thread on
http://groups.google.com/group/gcc-melt-french/browse_thread/thread/47088e96002e98af
