Memory Management

Gont provides transparent memory management, along with garbage collection (the particular kind of garbage collector used is Boehm conservative garbage collector, used also by GCJ and Popcorn). It generally means you can allocate as much as you want, forget the pointers, and the Gont runtime system with get rid of unused memory. [[not yet, but this is very simple]]
