Summary: memory leak of callcc, at specific situation.

Initial Comment:
while true
  @x = proc {|c| c}
end

is OK.


while true
  x = callcc {|c| c}
end

is OK, too.

but, 

while true
  @x = callcc {|c| c}
end

consume whole my memory.

I traced this from Generator. when I make some generator object, it doesnt free it's memory. 

while true
  g = Generator.new {|x| (1..3).each {|i| x.yield i}}
end

Of course, I found http://rubyforge.org/tracker/?group_id=426&atid=1698&func=detail&aid=1364

However, this code still consume memory.
