Did you check the differences between the JavascriptCore collector.cpp and 
our own? The diff is 781 lines long, while the file itself is 321 lines 
long. Basically, there is not much to compare anyway. Either we switch to 
JavascriptCore collector (or code base...), or we stay with our own.

But, I agree that as an optimisation, it's not worth doing it.

To ease merging with JSCore, a relatively easy start could be to switch the 
variable types to those used there - for example using size_t and uint32_t
where it makes sense.
