+ <para>The <application>GC</application> package contains the
+ Boehm-Demers-Weiser conservative garbage collector, which can be used as a
+ garbage collecting replacement for the C malloc function or C++ new
+ operator. It allows you to allocate memory basically as you normally would,
+ without explicitly deallocating memory that is no longer useful. The
+ collector automatically recycles memory when it determines that it can no
+ longer be otherwise accessed. The collector is also used by a number of
+ programming language implementations that either use C as intermediate
+ code, want to facilitate easier interoperation with C libraries, or just
+ prefer the simple collector interface. Alternatively, the garbage collector
+ may be used as a leak detector for C or C++ programs, though that is not
+ its primary goal.</para>
