Description corey 2006-09-22 10:31:21 UTC
User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8.0.4) Gecko/20060628 Galeon/2.0.0 Firefox/1.5.0.4
Build Identifier: 

Drscheme comes with the option for a alternate garbage collection method.  It's
done by doing "make 3m" "make install-3m".  Then you get the binary "drscheme3m"
which uses "more precice" garbage collection.  (don't ask me what makes it more
precice)

We have a "sgc" use flag for senora garbage collection, it would be cool to also
have a use flag for 3m.  

If i remember correctly, it generates "drscheme3m" and "drscheme" binaries.  If
that's true, then it could also be made the default option.

Reproducible: Always

dev-scheme/drscheme-360-r1 just committed to CVS has the "3m" USE flag to build the "drscheme3m" binary.
