Just executing ROOM in a loop shouldn't be causing problems. But if
you've got one thread doing allocation while concurrently doing a ROOM
in another thread, there might be problems. E.g the following seems
to crash pretty quickly and reliably.

  (sb-thread:make-thread
    (lambda ()
      (loop
        (load (compile-file "contrib/asdf/asdf.lisp")))))

  (sb-thread:make-thread (lambda () (loop (room))))
