to avoid GC problem in very early stage.
(RUBY_GC_STRESS causes GC in such stage.)
* variable.c (rb_gc_mark_global_tbl): rb_global_tbl may be 0 in
very early stage.
* thread.c (thread_cleanup_func) [IA64]: clear register stack position.
(thread_start_func_2) [IA64]: record the beginning of register
stack using extra argument.
(rb_gc_save_machine_context) [IA64]: record the end of register
stack.
* gc.c [IA64] (SET_STACK_END): record the end of register stack.
(garbage_collect) [IA64]: use recorded register stack area for
GC marking.
(yarv_machine_stack_mark) [IA64]: GC mark from the register stack
area.
* yarvcore.c [IA64] (rb_gc_register_stack_start): defined.
(Init_VM): store th->self on stack to fix GC problem.
(Init_yarv) [IA64]: initialize the beginning of register stack.
* yarvcore.h (struct rb_thread_struct) [IA64]: new members for
register stack area.
* thread_pthread.ci (thread_start_func_1) [IA64]: call
thread_start_func_2 with the end of register stack.
* cont.c (struct rb_context_struct) [IA64]: new members for register
stack area.
(cont_mark) [IA64]: GC mark from register stack area.
(cont_free) [IA64]: free saved register stack.
(cont_save_machine_stack) [IA64]: record the position and contents
of the register stack.
(cont_capture): store cont->self on stack to fix GC problem.
(cont_restore_1) [IA64]: restore the register stack.
[IA64] (register_stack_extend): new function.
(cont_restore_0) [IA64]: call register_stack_extend instead of
cont_restore_1.

* cont.c (cont_restore_1): copy stack information from fiber.
* cont.c (rb_fiber_s_new): fix to mark created fiber.
* test/ruby/test_fiber.rb: add some tests around Thread and Fiber.
* yarvcore.c (thread_free): fix to skip freeing stack if root fiber
is available.

of fiber body receive first yield values.
e.g.: Fiber.new{|x| p x}.yield(:ok) #=> :ok
* cont.c: rename rb_context_t#retval to rb_context_t#value.
* test/ruby/test_fiber.rb: ditto.

Fiber is known as "Micro Thread", "Coroutine", and other terms.
At this time, only Fiber#pass is supported to change context.
I want to know more suitable method name/API for Fiber (... do you
know more suitable class name instead of Fiber?) as "suspend/resume",
"call", "yield", "start/kick/stop/restart", ....
* eval.c, eval_intern.h, thread.c, yarvcore.c, yarvcore.h: ditto.
