+        * alloc.c (mark_object) <PVEC_WINDOW>: Mark prev/next_buffers *after*
+        calling mark_vectorlike since that's the one that marks the window.
+        (mark_discard_killed_buffers): Mark the final cdr.
+        * window.h (struct window): Move prev/next_buffers to the
+        non-standard fields.
+        * window.c (make_window): Initialize prev/next_buffers manually.
