-- ^Turns a plain memory reference into a foreign pointer, and
--- associates a finaliser with the reference. The finaliser will be executed
--- after the last reference to the foreign object is dropped. Note that there
--- is no guarantee on how soon the finaliser is executed after the last
--- reference was dropped; this depends on the details of the Haskell storage
--- manager. Indeed, there is no guarantee that the finalizer is executed at
--- all; a program may exit with finalizers outstanding. (This is true
--- of GHC, other implementations may give stronger guarantees).
