Absolutely. However, it is quite useful on those late evenings when you
are wishing there was a beer next to you and your Catch was commented
out for some reason yesterday. Oh, those pointers - they never
disappear unless you kill them, and you can't kill them if your program
crashes... And here is the beautiful Heap_gc, what a marvel... Actually,
if you ship out a compiled binary to your customer, they won't know...

Cheers,
Pavel

P.S. I don't use heap_gc in the code, only if my code crashes leaving
dead pieces behind - then I call it from command line, making sure
nobody is around watching me. Then I purge the log window to clean up
the crimescene :-)
