Wait a minute.. something's wrong here.. I just looked at my code for 
MOO-1.7.9p1/rx.c, and line 3128 is a call to rx_cache_get(), _not_
rx_handle_cache_miss() (could you verify this in your source, Amy?)..
moreover, looking through the entire rx_cache_malloc_or_get() function (there
isn't much of it), I can't find any way that it could conceivably get from
that function directly to rx_handle_cache_miss()..

This is beginning to smell of stack corruption.. ick.
