It looks like it.  But I'm also curious about some of the events.  Lucas can
you tell me/document what: GC_EVENT_START, GC_EVENT_RECLAIM_START,
GC_EVENT_RECLAIM_END and GC_EVENT_END mean.  Reclaim is probably obvious
with more knowledge about how the collector works but I'm afraid I don't
have/don't remember that.

The other thing we use with Mercury is the heap tracing code that Peter Wang
wrote about on this list a few months ago.
