   * bug fix: linkage-table entries on PPC now no longer overflow their
     space allocation (potentially causing crashes if they are written out
     of order).
+  * bug fix: Scrub control stack after scavenging in gencgc on non-x86oid
+    platforms, preventing the GC from seeing stale pointers on the control
+    stack in subsequent GCs (which would, and does, break invariants).
