I'm hoping to have a stab at getting a tiny language implementation up and running soon. I assume I can just pull in Boehm's GC to get a very rudimentary collector up and running. However, can this work using JIT compilation from OCaml or will the new GC try to traverse the OCaml program's own stack? -- Dr Jon D Harrop, Flying Frog Consultancy Ltd. http://www.ffconsultancy.com/products/?e

Check the Boehm GC documentation. — Gordon
