I implemented the necessary bits in Racket today, but it didn't help.
It turns out that the initial value of `(current-logger)' only
receives events from the initial place.  That means that a program
can't set up a log receiver for the whole program, just for one place.

It would be nice to have a way to get around this limitation -- either
forward on child-place log messages, have the main place log all GC
events, or something else.
