Is the fat reference an object that both contains the inner reference
and the pointer to the containing object? This seems to be a fairly
simple solution in every manner. It doesn't seem to cost much (IIUC, it
would move inner references from one to two words...), and need
modifications neither to the GC nor the allocator.

Curiously,
