I have a partial fix that gets your reproducibility case to work.
But, the error
it is replaced with is much worse :)

It seems to be related to frame stack corruption, something is getting
left on the frames stack, and being removed and found to be invalid.

I think I'll check in the partial fix and give it a rest for a while.

Richard.
