I had noticed this, and guessed that the garbage collection in REBOL
reclaims memory back into it's own pool, but does not release it back to
the OS.

Subject: [REBOL] Freeing memory
Hi,
if I create a block like this:
>> a: make block! 100000
the memory usage of REBOL increases.
If I do
>> unset 'a
there should be no references to the block.
However, the memory is not released.
How can I get the memory back?
