From doc/extension.rdoc:
>
> Using the RB_GC_GUARD macro is preferable to using the "volatile"
> keyword in C.  RB_GC_GUARD has the following advantages:
>
> 1) the intent of the macro use is clear
>
> 2) RB_GC_GUARD only affects its call site, "volatile" generates some
>    extra code every time the variable is used, hurting optimization.
>
> 3) "volatile" implementations may be buggy/inconsistent in some
>    compilers and architectures. RB_GC_GUARD is customizable for broken
>    systems/compilers without those without negatively affecting other
>    systems.
