This enables the users to pick a GC algorithm that's most suitable to their project and allows for a proliferation of GC algorithms, developed by independent groups and individuals, without requiring any modifications to be made to the standard Nimrod distribution. -The Nimrod code generator and type system can provide various GC roots marking strategies, various kinds of write/read barriers and all necessary static type information (e.g. static cycle analysis).

This module will be compiled as C code with the rest of the program and it could be easily debugged using standard C/C++ debugging and profiling tools. * Add support for precise stack marking
