No it is not. Boehm is using a very simple mode of world stop and run.
This
is good enough for many cases. Incremental mode is not disabled by

on many (any?) system.

Oh ***, get gcj to work on OpenBSD i386, if you're so smart. This is the

I'm not even speaking `weird' architectures, as you put it, but mainstream.

The kind of attitude you display does not conduce to WANTING to help you.
