Re: [perl #41658] [TODO] Move all gc source files into a separate directory

[Joshua Isom]

I have a patch for doing this, at least a build, compile, and test type patch. Instead of doing one massive patch to send, here's a script to move the files(diffs include the entire file twice) and apply the patch. It moves all the files I've noticed that are primarily related to memory management and the garbage collector.

While most of the other sections of the parrot source tree are fairly
neat and clean to be able to find what you're looking for, the garbage
collection files are all in src/ and not always obviously files used
for gc.  Most of my gc segfaults seem to be from smallobject.c but by
looking at the filename, I wouldn't expect it to be a gc file.  This
may help people to quickly be able to help track down a gc bug when
they find one, especially since the next day they're not reproducible,
even on the source machine.
