Description

Following the "discussion" on ​http://paste.call-cc.org/paste?id=efbe6a448b152968694221b82b299181f28925a3#a12 we see that, sometimes, running

$ csi -s oom.scm -:hm8M -:g 2>&1 | grep resize
[GC] resized heap to 3145728 bytes
[GC] resized heap to 6291456 bytes
[GC] resized heap to 8388608 bytes

...

triggers an infine heap-resize loop

with oog.scm being

(define state '())

(let loop ()

(set! state (alist-update (random 10000) (make-string 1000) state))
(loop))

this has been reproduced on 4.10.1 a 4.10.0
