Sorry, I still don't understand.  If an implementation has an internal
eq-hash whose results change between GC runs, then wouldn't (define
symbol-hash eq-hash) be an illegal implementation for symbol-hash?

I had not thought about this issue before at all, but from what I can
tell, it means that an implementation with a moving GC needs to do
something special for symbol-hash anyway.
