" Adding support for a storage pool that supports GC would probably
be EXTREMELY low cost. Doesn't GCC already use "fat" pointers under
some circumstances? All that would be needed is a pragma that
indicates that a certain storage pool uses fat pointers.
"
I am not sure what your shouted EXTREMELY is about here. We have looked into
this partial solution, and it is not at all easy to implement for all sorts
of reasons, remember that you have to identify the roots. So that seems to
mean that the pointers must be controlled, but even so, there are many
details to this. Cyrille Comar has looked at these issues in detail, and if
it was EXTREMELY easy to implement, it would have been done a long time ago!
