I don't know who wants to review it, but if people want me to, Ok.  The ide=
a is that if ObjC is the last remaining user in tree for boehm-gc, then rea=
sonably I'm the last man standing.  Of course, if others want to review app=
rove the patch, I'm fine with that.=20=20

I'm fine with patches to externalize boehm-gc if people want to push that d=
irection.
