Please disregard this request. I was able to figure out what was going on.

I’ve been working on updating/enhancing the debugger concept code and I’ve run into a situation where a gc fatal report is generated. I’m not exactly sure what it’s trying to say, as I /think/ the data all makes sense (though I’m unclear what 2+0 internal refs vs 2 refs might mean.
The pike in question is based on master from quite a while ago. I tried merging current master (which itself was a surprisingly easy task), but pike fails to compile due to typechecker errors. I tried building straight from master, but the build similarly fails with --with-debug and without that, pike compiles but fails to start. I’m hoping that doesn’t prevent coming up with an explanation for the problem.
I believe the “thing” in question is the main program, which comes from a file called file.pike. I’ve created a breakpoint object( for a line in this program), which is a PIKECLASS defined in _Debug/debug.cmod. The breakpoint object /does/ hold a reference to the program containing the breakpoint, but at this point, the breakpoint object hasn’t been destroyed.
Can anyone detect a problem from this report?
