Is anyone worried about this change re performance?

1999-12-10  Greg Harvey  <Greg.Harvey@thezone.net> (applied --12/10/99 gjb)

	* smob.c (scm_smob_prehistory): initialize allocated smob

	* tags.h: new tag: scm_tc16_allocated

	* gc.c (scm_gc_for_newcell): set the car of the new cell
	to scm_tc16_allocated
	* pairs.h (SCM_NEWCELL): set the car to scm_tc16_allocated
	(scm_gc_mark): mark allocated cells.

I am somewhat, because SCM_NEWCELL now seems to perform one more
operation.
