Fergus said

<<The standard implies that standard-conforming implementations can use
only conservative garbage collection, and that implementations that use
non-conservative GC techniques cannot be standard-conforming.

That still seems to me to be a potentially undesirable constraint to
place on standard-conforming implementations.

I can't figure out the strange misreading of the RM that leads to this
incorrect conclusion, but it is certainly an incorrect conclusion.
There is no such constraint in the RM.
