Hello again,
Why doesn't the default error handler for GC overflow print out the name
of the offending space? It appears that there is no way to retrieve this name
once the break has been taken -- or am I missing something? I know that
a user can define his own handler to do this, but I feel that the default could
be more informative. The screwee in this case is Lanny Forgy.
Cheers,
Scott Fahlman
