+Siod was the starting point for SCM. The major innovations taken from
+Siod are the evaluator's use of the C-stack and being able to garbage

+The file libguile/gc_os_dep.c is from the Boehm-Weiser conservative
+collector. A lot of people have contributed to it, but probably not
+all to the code in gc_os_dep.c:
+
+ The SPARC specific code was contributed by Mark Weiser
+ (weiser@parc.xerox.com). The Encore Multimax modifications were
+ supplied by Kevin Kenny (kenny@m.cs.uiuc.edu). The adaptation to
+ the RT is largely due to Vernon Lee (scorpion@rice.edu), on
+ machines made available by IBM. Much of the HP specific code and
+ a number of good suggestions for improving the generic code are
+ due to Walter Underwood (wunder@hp-ses.sde.hp.com). Robert
+ Brazile (brazile@diamond.bbn.com) originally supplied the ULTRIX
+ code. Al Dosser (dosser@src.dec.com) and Regis Cridlig
+ (Regis.Cridlig@cl.cam.ac.uk) subsequently provided updates and
+ information on variation between ULTRIX systems. Parag Patel
+ (parag@netcom.com) supplied the A/UX code. Jesper
+ Peterson(jep@mtiame.mtia.oz.au), Michel Schinz, and Martin
+ Tauchmann (martintauchmann@bigfoot.com) supplied the Amiga port.
+ Thomas Funke (thf@zelator.in-berlin.de(?)) and Brian D.Carlstrom
+ (bdc@clark.lcs.mit.edu) supplied the NeXT ports. Douglas Steel
+ (doug@wg.icl.co.uk) provided ICL DRS6000 code. Bill Janssen
+ (janssen@parc.xerox.com) supplied the SunOS dynamic loader
+ specific code. Manuel Serrano (serrano@cornas.inria.fr) supplied
+ linux and Sony News specific code. Al Dosser provided Alpha/OSF/1
+ code. He and Dave Detlefs(detlefs@src.dec.com) also provided
+ several generic bug fixes. Alistair G. Crooks(agc@uts.amdahl.com)
+ supplied the NetBSD and 386BSD ports. Jeffrey Hsu
+ (hsu@soda.berkeley.edu) provided the FreeBSD port. Brent Benson
+ (brent@jade.ssd.csd.harris.com) ported the collector to a Motorola
+ 88K processor running CX/UX (Harris NightHawk). Ari Huttunen
+ (Ari.Huttunen@hut.fi) generalized the OS/2 port to nonIBM
+ development environments (a nontrivial task). Patrick Beard
+ (beard@cs.ucdavis.edu) provided the initial MacOS port. David
+ Chase, then at Olivetti Research, suggested several improvements.
+ Scott Schwartz (schwartz@groucho.cse.psu.edu) supplied some of the
+ code to save and print call stacks for leak detection on a SPARC.
+ Jesse Hull and John Ellis supplied the C++ interface code. Zhong
+ Shao performed much of the experimentation that led to the current
+ typed allocation facility. (His dynamic type inference code
+ hasn't made it into the released version of the collector, yet.)
+ (Blame for misinstallation of these modifications goes to the
+ first author, however.)
