Sometimes people assign things like classes to __weak pointers. This confuses the GC, because it expects to be able to finalize / delete things that are the target of disappearing links.

Use typed allocations for the hash table entries. This makes sure that the GC won't treat the jump table bitfield as a pointer.
...
Store the refcount structures inside the hash table, rather than in a chained structure. This uses less space and should be easier for the GC to scan (less cache used).

Add an ugly hack to prevent a clever optimiser from realising that it can completely optimise objc_clear_stack() away.

Fix building without GC support. Still need to make sure that some of the GC functions always work, since they are expected to be no-ops in non-GC mode.

Make sure that associated objects and blocks use GC-scanned memory in GC mode.

Blocks do not yet support __weak bound variables. This needs fixing before the release.

First pass at implementing Apple-compatible GC using Boehm. Still needs some tidying, but the following work:
...
- __strong pointers, preventing objects from being freed
_ __weak pointers are automatically freed when the last remaining __strong pointer goes away
- objc_gc_{retain,release}_np() functions, which can be used to implement CFRetain() and CFRelease() (adds an reference count - the object will not be collected until after its last retain is gone.
