[plt-scheme] DrScheme hanging occasionally

I'm on Win2k and WinXP.

With the old builds, I used to get really long GC stalls on a regular basis.

Since I installed the newest build, though, I've seen some stalls that don't
seem to be GC related (ie the GC icon is not flashing).   Mine seem to be
during execution of programs involving Fr. Time.  Specifically, I've seen
the clock animation demo freeze up a couple of times.
