I just noticed that if the only reference to a bigarray is in a Weak.t 
array, and if there is a finalisation function set on the bigarray, 
then that finalisation function is not necessarily called when the 
entry in the Weak.t array is set to None. Rather it is potentially 
called *much* later.

I am assuming that this is the right behaviour.

My question is, can I get the finalisation function to be called when 
the weak pointer is being set to None?

(Side note: I am trying to avoid Marshaling the Bigarray unless it is 
going to be garbage-collected. But if I cannot detect that, then I have 
to always Marshal it whenever its entries change, which is very 
inefficient.)

Thanks,
