segfaults in Parrot_String_mark

[coke]

With parrot: r40853, and partcl r648, I'm seeing a lot of segfaults with a backtrace resembling this one:

This particular backtrace comes from "parrot tcl.pbc t_tcl/basic.test", and occurs for me on feather with an optimized parrot after running test 'basic-46.5'.
