An ephemeron table can be moved to the allweak list, at the atomic
phase, if it does not have to be traversed again but still needs to be
cleaned.  Maybe the logic that controls these conditions is wrong.

I certainly will have a look at that, but not immediately.

Many many thanks for the feedback and this analysis.
