Matthew Flatt 449f01b55d Chez Scheme GC: simplify make parallel sweeper object exchange
Make the exchange of objects by parallel sweepers --- which is needed
when an object being swept by one thread refers to an object owner by
another thread --- much simpler and slightly faster.

The original design of exchanging memory regions didn't really work
out, and it had degrenerated to essentially exchanging objects.
Explicitly exchanging objects instead of regions makes the GC simpler,
because received objects can be just added to the regular sweep stack,
and less additional space<->type correspondence is needed.

Racket is a general-purpose programming language and an ecosystem for language-oriented programming.

This repository holds the source code for the core of Racket plus some related packages. The rest of the Racket distribution source code is in other repositories, mostly under the Racket GitHub organization.

Quick Start

Pre-built versions of Racket for a variety of operating systems and architectures, as well as convenient source distributions are available at

https://download.racket-lang.org

Racket comes with extensive documentation, including several tutorials. You can read all of this documentation, as well as documentation for third-party packages at

https://docs.racket-lang.org

Building from Source
