see <url:<A HREF="ftp://ftp.cs.utexas.edu/pub/garbage/bigsurv.ps">ftp://ftp.cs.utexas.edu/pub/garbage/bigsurv.ps</A>> for one

<url:<A HREF="http://www.cs.ukc.ac.uk/people/staff/rej/gcbib/gcbibW.html">http://www.cs.ukc.ac.uk/people/staff/rej/gcbib/gcbibW.html</A>>.
I have difficulty imagining a system in which the choice of gc algorithm
is up to each module, which would seem to imply that gc would have to go
in the core with threading and dynamic loading.
