Can someone please explain to me why scm_cells_allocated is
incremented both in SCM_NEWCELL and after the sweep of a gc segment?
This way scm_cells_allocated gets a pretty fuzzy meaning:
It's A + Sum_{i = 1}^A N_i where A is the number of cells allocated
since boot and N_i is the number of times cell i has experienced a GC
during its life.
Really weird...
