Oh, ok, sorry for the misreport. It sounds then as if we need to fix whatever is causing the memory corruption that GC trips over. I dont know that we have a real good handle on what this is. Note that in the meantime, folks who turn off gc in order to work around the issue who are having leakage problems should probably consider the use of AutoLance, a product that will restart your Zope if memory consumption is too high: http://www.zope.org/Members/mcdonc/Products/AutoLance . It currently only works on Linux.
Actually, I don't think the leaks haven't been fixed in CVS. It would be at best painful to try and get the compiler code to work without cycle GC. I really don't want to have to do it.
