Because of the uniquely positioned gc, the testcase took a hideously long time to reduce. :-/

Not sure if this is entirely correct or not..

When returning into the interpoline after finishing a scripted call, the interpoline needed to monitor the result of the call.  (Monitoring in the interpoline isn't needed in other places, because there we are returning from a stub call which is responsible for calling monitor() itself).  This is a regression from rev a2dbb9efcf9e, which introduced type barriers at call sites.
