    When GC encounters a fatal inconsistency in the Emacs data structures,
    it is generally unsafe to say anything, since that could easily cause
    a nested fatal signal.

It would also not be very useful, since any info we could put into
such an error message could be quickly discovered by a little
investigation with a debugger.
