The issue was briefly discussed, there were problems with MS-Windows
that I do not follow and cannot easily test, Dmitry played it safe and
left MS-Windows alone, and I followed his lead. It was reasonable for
us to be cautious about enabling USE_STACK_LISP_OBJECTS on an untested
and potentially-problematic platform. And it was reasonable for you to
enable USE_STACK_LISP_OBJECTS on MS-Windows once you installed further
changes to fix the problems and had tested the result. There was
nothing sneaky about any of this, and the above-quoted remarks are
unwarranted.
By the way, I share Stefan's concern that the performance improvements
of USE_STACK_LISP_OBJECTS haven't been adequately demonstrated.
