Ah, this is not exactly an easily reproducible problem :( You gotta be
lucky enough to be able to interrupt inside a malloc call.

But adding hold/resume interrrupts in mcxt.c (not aset.c, since we
want to be agnostic to the underlying layer) should be good enough to
handle this non-re-entrant issue, no?
