/* scm_copy_tree creates deep copies of pairs and vectors, but not of any other
 * data types.
 *
 * To avoid infinite recursion due to cyclic structures, the hare-and-tortoise
 * pattern is used to detect cycles.  In fact, the pattern is used in two
 * dimensions, vertical (indicated in the code by the variable names 'hare'
 * and 'tortoise') and horizontal ('rabbit' and 'turtle').  In both
 * dimensions, the hare/rabbit will take two steps when the tortoise/turtle
 * takes one.
 *
 * The vertical dimension corresponds to recursive calls to function
 * copy_tree: This happens when descending into vector elements, into cars of
 * lists and into the cdr of an improper list.  In this dimension, the
 * tortoise follows the hare by using the processor stack: Every stack frame
 * will hold an instance of struct t_trace.  These instances are connected in
 * a way that represents the trace of the hare, which thus can be followed by
 * the tortoise.  The tortoise will always point to struct t_trace instances
 * relating to SCM objects that have already been copied.  Thus, a cycle is
 * detected if the tortoise and the hare point to the same object,
 *
 * The horizontal dimension is within one execution of copy_tree, when the
 * function cdr's along the pairs of a list.  This is the standard
 * hare-and-tortoise implementation, found several times in guile.  */
