// object). It can be used to, for example, scan foreign stack frames or
// data structures with an unknown layout. It is called conservative
// marking, because it can lead to false positives, as non-pointer data
// can mistakenly be interpreted as a pointer to a Julia object.

// CAUTION: This is a sharp tool and should only be used as a measure of
// last resort. The user should be familiar with the risk of memory
// leaks (especially on 32-bit machines) if used inappropriately and how
// optimizing compilers can hide references from conservative stack
// scanning. In particular, arrays must be kept explicitly visible to
// the GC (by using JL_GC_PUSH1(), storing them in a location marked by
// the Julia GC, etc.) while their contents are being accessed. The
// reason is that array contents aren't marked separately, so if the
// object itself is not visible to the GC, neither are the contents.

// whether support was already enabled. The function may implicitly
// trigger a full garbage collection to properly update all internal

// allocations, the user must track allocations using the notification
// callbacks above and verify that they are valid objects. Note that
