+
+        * rubysig.h:  remapped wipe methods to avoid values > 9

+
+        * version.h:  bumped date

+
+        
+Sun Jan  4 20:15:36 2009  Brent Roman  <brent@mbari.org>
+
+        * eval.c:  eliminated up_stk_extent(), wipe_stack in rb_thread_switch
+

+                streamlined SET_STACK_END and STACK_END, stack_length(), etc.
+                added TOP_FRAME to use gcc's builtin frame_address
+                optimized is_heap_pointer()
+                gc_mark_rest() does not need to copy entire mark_stack!
+                added set_stack_size() to properly hande RLIM_INFINITY
+                
+        * rubysig.h:  repaired broken pseudo preemptive thread switching
+                      removed rb_gc_malloc_increase & limit
+                      replaced buggy __stack_grown* with __stack_past* macros
+        
+
 Tue Dec 19 20:15:36 2008  Brent Roman  <brent@mbari.org>
 
         * eval.c:  added (Method|Proc)#(__line__|__file__) methods

+/* STACK_WIPE_SITES determines where attempts are made to exorcise
+   "ghost object refereces" from the stack and how the stack is cleared:
+   
+   0x*001 -->  wipe stack just after every thread_switch
+   0x*002 -->  wipe stack just after every EXEC_TAG()
+   0x*004 -->  wipe stack in CHECK_INTS
+   0x*010 -->  wipe stack in while & until loops
+   0x*020 -->  wipe stack before yield() in iterators and outside eval.c
+   0x*040 -->  wipe stack on catch and thread save context
+   0x*100 -->  update stack extent on each object allocation
+   0x*200 -->  update stack extent on each object reallocation
+   0x*400 -->  update stack extent during GC marking passes
+   0x*800 -->  update stack extent on each throw (use with 0x040)
+   0x1000 -->  use inline assembly code for x86, PowerPC, or ARM CPUs
+
+   0x0*** -->  do not even call rb_wipe_stack()
+   0x2*** -->  call dummy rb_wipe_stack() (for debugging and profiling)
+   0x4*** -->  safe, portable stack clearing in memory allocated with alloca
+   0x6*** -->  use faster, but less safe stack clearing in unallocated stack
+   0x8*** -->  use faster, but less safe stack clearing (with inline code)
+   
+   for most effective gc use 0x*707
+   for fastest micro-benchmarking use 0x0000
+   0x*770 prevents almost all memory leaks caused by ghost references
+   without adding much overhead for stack clearing.
+   Other good trade offs are 0x*270, 0x*703, 0x*303 or even 0x*03
+   
+   In general, you may lessen the default -mpreferred-stack-boundary
+   only if using less safe stack clearing (0x6***).  Lessening the
+   stack alignment with portable stack clearing (0x4***) may fail to clear 
+   all ghost references off the stack.
+   
+   When using 0x6*** or 0x8***, the compiler could insert 
+   stack push(s) between reading the stack pointer and clearing 
+   the ghost references.  The register(s) pushed will be
+   cleared by the rb_gc_stack_wipe(), typically resulting in a segfault
+   or an interpreter hang.
+   
+   STACK_WIPE_SITES of 0x8770 works well compiled with gcc on most machines
+   using the recommended CFLAGS="-O2 -fno-stack-protector".  However...
+   If it hangs or crashes for you, try changing STACK_WIPE_SITES to 0x4770
+   and please report your details.  i.e. CFLAGS, compiler, version, CPU
+   
+   Note that it is redundant to wipe_stack in looping constructs if 
+   also doing so in CHECK_INTS.  It is also redundant to wipe_stack on
+   each thread_switch if wiping after every thread save context.
