Yeah, pretty much: I was able to nuke many finalizers by transforming
separately allocated data structures to Lisp objects.  Some of the
remaining finalizers are also likely to go away, as soon as I (or
someone else) find the time to lift the remaining, separately allocated
objects to Lisp objects.  Then, the garbage collector takes care of all
resources; finalizers that only free additional memory are no longer
needed.
