Well yes, but this _is_ a performance optimisation you're doing :)

gc_node is the next node to be garbage-collected. We don't need to
garbage-collect nodes which are already obsolete. So if you're freeing
the object which is currently pointed to by jeb->gc_node, you can just
make gc_node point to the next_phys node which you're _not_ freeing.
