soft_addreference()

[Archie Cobbs]

What does the soft_addreference() function do? And where is it?
I can't seem to find it anywhere... is it obsolete? If so, then
what about this macro in gc-incremental.h?

  #if defined(GC_INCREMENTAL)
  #define GC_WRITE(_o, _p)        soft_addreference(_o, _p)
  #else   
  #define GC_WRITE(_o, _p)
  #endif                  

Does that imply GC_WRITE() is obsolete also (and may be removed)?

Thanks,
-Archie
