Okay, here's the scoop. All the GC related vtable stuff? Tossed. We
now have exactly two entries.
mark: Called if the PMC has the PMC_custom_mark_FLAG set. Assumed to
mark all the buffers and PMCs this PMC contains
collect: Called if the PMC has the PMC_private_GC_FLAG set. Any
memory allocated by Parrot_allocate that is *not* pointed to by a PMC
or Buffer *must* marked with Parrot_mark_used_memory(interpreter,
from pointer, size).
Note that Parrot_mark_used_memory may move the memory and this will
return a pointer to the memory's new location. (Don't discard the
pointer, you'll regret it!
