Yeah, I still see it with the current snapshot. But, not with move_pages
anymore, it seems. There had to be more sources, the current one is
(with -x move_pages):
 *** Error in `trinity': double free or corruption (top):

The topmost trinity item 0x40abc8 is "entry->post(childno)". There seems
to be a lost/optimized-out frame between this call and libc :/.
