that required explicitly calling LazyList.clear() in the two tests that use LazyList (I added a LazyList Fibonacci generator too). A real bitch: the extremely inefficient first version of the 2-3-5 test *looked* like a slow leak on Win98SE, but it wasn't "really": it generated so many results that the heap grew over 4Mb (tons of frames! the number of frames grows exponentially in that test). Then Win98SE malloc() starts fragmenting address space allocating more and more heaps, and the visible memory use grew very slowly while the disk was thrashing like mad. Printing fewer results (i.e., keeping the heap burden under 4Mb) made that illusion vanish. Looks like there's no hope for plugging the LazyList leaks automatically short of adding frameobjects and genobjects to gc. OTOH, they're very easy to break by hand, and they're the only *kind* of plausibly realistic leaks I've been able to provoke. Dilemma.
