745 *
746 * To overcome this problem, if cell access debugging with additional
747 * garbage collections is enabled, the after-gc-hook is never run by the
748 * garbage collecter. When running guile with cell access debugging and the
749 * execution of the after-gc-hook is desired, then it is necessary to run
750 * the hook explicitly from the user code. This has the effect, that from
751 * the scheme level point of view it seems that garbage collection is
752 * performed with a much lower frequency than it actually is. Obviously,
753 * this will not work for code that depends on a fixed one to one
754 * relationship between the execution counts of the C level garbage
755 * collection hooks and the execution count of the scheme level
756 * after-gc-hook.
