Since chicken uses a (generational) stop-and-copy collector, all data
allocated will be moved from one space to another on every GC.
But it should be possible to create some sort of higher-level abstraction
on top of non-GCd (but finalized) raw memory. I'll try to come up with
something.
(This paragraph conflicts with the former - I don't know what I'm talking
about sometimes)
Unless you want numerical vectors (which should be covered with
SRFI-4), all I can currently offer is:

(stolen from S48)
