In the past, I made use of the end-of-process freeing for testing 
purposes, i.e. I tested that I registered correct "free" functions for 
extension objects. Since the GC is conservative, the only reliable way 
to do so was to start a separate ruby process, let it terminate, and 
evaluate its debugging printouts.

Unnecessary, IMHO.
