BDWGC fix in 2.24?

[Jean Abou Samra]

Hi,

As illustrated by a recent message on lilypond-user, the
GC issue on Windows is still there for very large scores
in 2.23.81.

In https://github.com/ivmai/bdwgc/issues/454#issuecomment-1313127991
the BDWGC maintainer said the release of his fix would
probably happen in January, which is later than what we
hope for our 2.24 release.

What should we do? Do we accept releasing 2.24 from
the release-8_2 branch in BDWGC even though it is not
released? Do we keep the current workaround, which still
gives some crashes? Do we replace our workaround
with Ivan Maidanski's patch, which seems to apply cleanly
on the v.8.2.2 tag?

Thanks,
Jean
