[LLVMdev] Accurate garbage collection support

I recently added initial support for accurate GC to LLVM, as described in
this document:

http://llvm.cs.uiuc.edu/docs/GarbageCollection.html

I've started implementing a trivial copying collector as a testcase for
it, but it is not done yet.  All code generators support identification of
roots on the stack though.

If you're interested in such things, I would really appreciate feedback on
the document, especially from front-end authors or garbage collection
implementor type-of-people.

Thanks,

-Chris
