Thanks to everybody for their suggestions. I'll respond to all in this single
message to keep the discussion from spreading out too much. Please let me know
if this is inconvenient for you. I also apologize in advance for my large
messages. There's a TL;DR of sorts in the last 3 paragraphs.

Hi,
I think you should give up the idea to GC collect all objects. Due to the
GC being of the conservative type, that can't be guaranteed to happen. Any
attempt to wait until all objects are collected runs the risk of hanging
indefinitely.
Here's a suggestion for a less "heavy-handed" approach th

One idea would be to simply call `scm_gc()' and
`scm_run_finalizers()' until the latter returns 0. As far as
I can see, this should ensure all finalizers are called,
assumming no references to any foreign obje
