Nope.  I'll check on my powerbook when it gets back to make sure (Since
that looks like a mac pathname to me. Let's all use ":" as a directory
seperator!)

You don't have a rewrite of GCC in a garbage collected language,
do you?

[First one to mention LISP or Scheme here loses].

For extra points, rewrite gengtype as a tree-ssa pass that runs during
stage2 and 3 compiles, and change stage1 to just use boehms or something.

If you ever need amusement, i can explain the amount of evenings and
weekends i've spent attempting to get our GC to approach something
reasonable.

I've got code somewhere to do everything but reference counting.
