Hello,

I have written a mzscheme-extension that deals with explicitly
allocated data. When I exit scheme by calling '(exit)' none of that
data is garbage-collected.
My finalizers are ignored. The current-custodian is not called. What
can I do to free my data on exit?

Greetings,
Sebastian

PS: What happens to the other data? Is MzScheme slowly drowning my
computer with unfreed data if only I happen to start and exit it often
enough?
