I managed to manually merge them in, except:

this hunk didn't apply -- the code doesn't seem to even exist in my
version.  Doesn't appear to matter though: a) the change does not appear
to be substantial, and b) HPUX isn't defined, so it probably wouldn't
have touched this anyway.  :)

With the rest of the changes applied, I can no longer replicate the 
problem using GCTest.

Thanks Hans!

Do you recommend running without GC_IGNORE_GCJ_INFO now that this fix is in?
