Here is a somewhat different version of the threads patches for Emacs.
Great job.
I'm trying to improve GC (by making it generational at first), and it's
almost obvious that full-featured multithreading requires substantial
support from GC; our final goal might be a fully parallel GC performed
simultaneously by the all threads, or special GC thread(s) to perform
an incremental collection, or whatever else. Do you have any thoughts
about how the GC should be improved for the sake of threading support?
