While we are at it: How do you handle the encoding of
info into the lower bits of a pointer? For Boehm GC,
this was a major problem, AFAIR. At least the RT-Mutex code
does this. There are others, but I'm to lazy to grep now...
I haven't looked at RT-Mutex but are more than the 2 bottom bits used
for this? If not, they can be masked out before look-up. The slab
allocator seems to always return blocks aligned to word size.
Thanks for pointing out.
