+This module provides runtime support for implementing the
+Ellis/Detlefs GC proposal, "Safe, Efficient Garbage Collection for
+C++", within g++, using its -fgc-keyword extension.  It defines
+versions of __builtin_new, __builtin_new_gc, __builtin_vec_new,
+__builtin_vec_new_gc, __builtin_delete, and __builtin_vec_delete that
+invoke the Bohem GC.  It also implements the WeakPointer.h interface.
+
+This module assumes the following configuration options of the Boehm GC:
+
+    -DALL_INTERIOR_POINTERS
+    -DDONT_ADD_BYTE_AT_END   
+
+This module adds its own required padding to the end of objects to
+support C/C++ "one-past-the-object" pointer semantics.

+
+/***************************************************************************
+
+The __builtin_new routines add a descriptor word to the end of each
+object.   The descriptor serves two purposes.  
+
+First, the descriptor acts as padding, implementing C/C++ pointer
+semantics.  C and C++ allow a valid array pointer to be incremented
+one past the end of an object.  The extra padding ensures that the
+collector will recognize that such a pointer points to the object and
+not the next object in memory.
+
+Second, the descriptor stores three extra pieces of information,
+whether an object has a registered finalizer (destructor), whether it
+may have any weak pointers referencing it, and for collectible arrays,
+the element size of the array.  The element size is required for the
+array's finalizer to iterate through the elements of the array.  (An
+alternative design would have the compiler generate a finalizer
+procedure for each different array type.  But given the overhead of
+finalization, there isn't any efficiency to be gained by that.)
+
+The descriptor must be added to non-collectible as well as collectible
+objects, since the Ellis/Detlefs proposal allows "pointer to gc T" to
+be assigned to a "pointer to T", which could then be deleted.  Thus,
+__builtin_delete must determine at runtime whether an object is
+collectible, whether it has weak pointers referencing it, and whether
+it may have a finalizer that needs unregistering.  Though
+GC_REGISTER_FINALIZER doesn't care if you ask it to unregister a
+finalizer for an object that doesn't have one, it is a non-trivial
+procedure that does a hash look-up, etc.  The descriptor trades a
+little extra space for a significant increase in time on the fast path
+through delete.  (A similar argument applies to
+GC_UNREGISTER_DISAPPEARING_LINK).
+
+For non-array types, the space for the descriptor could be shrunk to a
+single byte for storing the "has finalizer" flag.  But this would save
+space only on arrays of char (whose size is not a multiple of the word
+size) and structs whose largest member is less than a word in size
+(very infrequent).  And it would require that programmers actually
+remember to call "delete[]" instead of "delete" (which they should,
+but there are probably lots of buggy programs out there).  For the
+moment, the space savings seems not worthwhile, especially considering
+that the Boehm GC is already quite space competitive with other
+malloc's.
+
+
+Given a pointer o to the base of an object:
+
+Descriptor* DESCRIPTOR (void* o) 
+     returns a pointer to the descriptor for o.
+
+The implementation of descriptors relies on the fact that the GC
+implementation allocates objects in units of the machine's natural
+word size (e.g. 32 bits on a SPARC, 64 bits on an Alpha).
