This PR updates Alloy to use the
GC_finalize
API implemented in the recent changes to BDWGC (softdevteam/bdwgc#22). It also contains some general tidying up commits.I measured the performance of these changes on yksom to see if we can get a better idea of the cost of using condition variables in the finaliser thread. The results are shown below.
