I remember using the Boehm GC in C++ in 1989. I wrote a Symbolics Lisp to G++ compiler called XL when. I was at Fuji Xerox and PARC and used it to convert Statice, the first object-oriented database, from Lisp to C++. The server side was a transactional block server and didn't do much consing, but the code flow for the Lisp side did not conveniently map into the C++ stack/ctor/dtor model of memory allocation, so I used the Boehm GC. sadly, the compiler, XL, got lost in a tar fire.
