Hey party people!
What is the current state? Is it enough to store a pointer in a
ptrdiff_t variable instead of a pointer for the GC to ignore
it or is
my current trick of simply inverting its value required?
I'm not sure I understand why you would hide a pointer from the
GC.
For weak references mainly. For example, caching, weak event
subscribers, and a fair few other things.
