Brian Koropoff 991fc06360 Garbage collection:
Moved from reference counting over to a mark and sweep method.  Objects
are now required to implement an allRefs method which returns a pointer
to a list of all other referenced objects.  How the list is maintained
is up to each object.  The retain/release mechanism still works; objects
with any references will not be garbage collected, even if the collector
thinks they should be.
