In conjunction with this, the `CYCLONE_LIBRARY_PATH` environment variable may be set to force Cyclone to look in a specific place other than the system folder for libraries. + +- Decrease minor GC time by only tracing globals when one of them has changed. + +- Added the `thread-join!` function to `(srfi 18)`.
