I wouldn't try that at home. ;-)
However, you might want to try the `boehm-demers-weiser-gc' branch of
Guile, which uses Boehm GC as a replacement of Guile's own GC. To try
it, you must:
1. Fetch the Git repository
(http://www.gnu.org/software/guile/repository.html).
2. Run "git checkout boehm-demers-weiser-gc".
3. Run "autoreconf -vfi".
4. Run "./configure && make && make install". You need Boehm GC 7.1
for that (it's not in Debian).
Thanks,
Ludo'.
