DEFVAR_BOOL sets the symbol's value to point to a Lisp_Fwd_Bool which
has a pointer to a varioble in Emacs' data segment.

The variable you showed was, IIRC

  DEFVAR_BOOL ("inhibit-modification-hooks", inhibit_modification_hooks,

It looked to me as if that pointer was bogus.

Doesn't matter much - with Helmut's new dump loading code everything
will change from the ground up again anyway :-).
