I don't know. It seems a bit destabilizing.
One thing to consider is that master uses the GC_set_finalizer_notifier
/ GC_invoke_finalizers API, which does not appear to be in any stable
libgc series so far. We could arrange this ourselves, of course, but
as far as instincts go MHO is to leave stable-2.0 as it is, in this
regard.
Cheers,
Andy
