> ... sigh What a can of worms I opened. Again. Well if you use threading to "share" seqs and strings via a `ptr` indirection here is what happens: The compiler says "ok, go ahead you know what you're doing since you use `ptr`", but you don't know what you're doing. You get random crashes in random places and then you hack around it via `--assertions:off` or `GC_disableMarkAndSweep()`.
It's like you have a broken leg but then you drink enough Methanol to become blind so that you don't see your broken leg anymore. Unfortunately that doesn't stop the pain.
