Use typed allocations for the hash table entries. This makes sure that the GC won't treat the jump table bitfield as a pointer.
...
Store the refcount structures inside the hash table, rather than in a chained structure. This uses less space and should be easier for the GC to scan (less cache used).

Updated Makefile to compile correctly again.
...
Added a really ugly hack so that the ABI versions of the three .m files are not checked. This will (hopefully!) prevent the GC being enabled when libobjc is loaded after being compiled with -fobjc-gc.

Make sure that associated objects and blocks use GC-scanned memory in GC mode.
...
Blocks do not yet support __weak bound variables. This needs fixing before the release.

First pass at implementing Apple-compatible GC using Boehm. Still needs some tidying, but the following work:
...
- __strong pointers, preventing objects from being freed
_ __weak pointers are automatically freed when the last remaining __strong pointer goes away
- objc_gc_{retain,release}_np() functions, which can be used to implement CFRetain() and CFRelease() (adds an reference count - the object will not be collected until after its last retain is gone.
