    Second, GC flips are inhibited during hash tables accesses.

There's something strange going on here.  The business about GC flips
being inhibited is only true of the old, pre-Genera-7 hash tables.  The
new table system in Genera 7 never inhibits GC flips.  The old hash
tables are still present in Genera 7, for compatibility purposes.  Is it
possible that you were using the Zetalisp make-hash-table instead of the
Common Lisp make-hash-table, or that you were using release 6?
