- when thread_get_room exhausts the local allocation area, it now
goes through a common path with S_get_more_room to allocate a new

the use of global allocation (and the number of tc mutex acquires
in threaded builds) when a lot of small objects are allocated by
C code with no intervening Scheme-side allocation or dirty writes.

is a fixnum and added meta-asserts to verify that it is in a couple of
others, to facilitate future changes to vector typing. vectors are
now treated essentially like fxvectors, strings, and bytevectors.
