Btw, does rb_gc_register_mark_object pin?  A quick glance at
gc.c tells me it doesn't, and I'll need to revert commit
2a6cb76d5010cb763ef5a2c305728465d15eb7c9 in unicorn:
https://yhbt.net/unicorn-public/20181226050857.6413-1-e@80x24.org/

Anyways, it takes me too long to compile Ruby so I'm back to
running whatever my distro ships.  I haven't been able to
test GC.compact at all.
