Crafting Interpreters with Rust: On Garbage Collection

I did something very similar to this myself. My GC implementation was pretty heavily inspired by manishearth's Rust GC.

My swing at the Crafting Intepreters in Rust can be found here: https://github.com/mwerezak/sphinx-lang

Although, at the time I was really interested in Lua's syntax so for extra credit I designed a completely different syntax for Lox closer to Lua's.

I'd love to revisit this project sometime and implement a register-based VM similar to Lua's.

Thanks for sharing! That's a much more interesting project compared to mine xD. I had the intuition that rust-gc could be implemented in a simpler fashion by not being generic. Glad to see someone actually had it done.
