My apologies. I only looked at seq and (mistakenly) assumed all were faster. On 
my (rather slow) laptop, the results of the ptr benchmark are 
    
    
    refc:
    Sequence  2.70ms/iter
    List      2.99ms/iter
    FastStack 2.23ms/iter
    
    Boehm:
    Sequence  2.43ms/iter
    List      3.29ms/iter
    FastStack 2.54ms/iter

FastStack with refc is indeed the winner, though seq with Boehm is not far 
behind.

I get the same segfault. Will have to dig a bit more and see where the bug 
lies. Hope it's not in the GC!

Edit: It seems Boehm is slower with the seq int benchmark, but faster with the 
seq ptr case. I'd argue the seq int case isn't a very realistic test.
