Yes: use SGC by suppyling --enable-sgc to configure.

Don't call `thread'.

If you know that certain functions will never be called, a lot of
internal code could be removed, but there's not much in the source to
help you. And long ago, I tried to support pared-down versions of
MzScheme with preprocessor definitions like NO_SCHEME_THREADS, but I
didn't keep them working.
