It may be interesting, but Felix uses a precise collector
which is potentially much faster, because much store allocated
by Felix programs isn't on the GC heap: it is managed by
traditional RAII (ctor/dtor) or the machine stack.


Boehm is tricky to port and excludes using certain data structures
such as tries (page tables).

Currently the Felix collector is portable and thread safe
but world-stop. I'm looking at a parallel collector as
the next step, possibly Chengs.
