Need to parenthesize "n" in SPECIAL_VALUE macro for precedence.
...
This was causing the type tags to overlap with fixnums.

Added built-in structure types and interpreter core (w/o bytecode).
...
Improved timing resolution by using clock_gettime() instead of clock().
Also gave project a name: Rosella. Play on 'Parrot' (Perl 6 VM).

Add support for weak boxes and wills/finalizers.
...
Also refactored some GC code into smaller functions.
Weak boxes and wills will be useful for implementing weak hash tables,
which in turn will be used to store dynamic parameters efficiently.

Add full support for remaining data type (box, vector, byte string).
...
Improve inline accessors for cases where value type is known.
Move GC stats into a single global structure to reduce proliferation of globals.

Refactor into a GC library (gc.c and gc.h) and a test program (gc_test.c).
...
Also, allocate GC memory ranges dynamically during startup (gc_init()) rather than statically.
