mattip: hm, I wonder whether I did something wrong when merging the 'MSVC has a copysign' changes to 3.8
<cfbolz>
because looking at your 3.9 merge commit, no change to PC/ was made
<cfbolz>
arigato: gentle ping?
<cfbolz>
I was thinking about the following: we have type erasure in the rtyper, meaning we don't make arbitrarily many variants of GcArrays for fixed-sized lists. however, we still have variants for lists of strings, lists of instances, lists of lists, etc
<cfbolz>
including copies of all the ll functions
<cfbolz>
wouldn't it be better nowadays to erase most of these to GcArrays of GCREFs?
