[racket] Trouble with C->Racket callbacks passing pointers to arrays

Ahhh, I should have figured that. Thanks!

Yes, it works great with make-f64vector/immobile, thanks!

As a general inquiry, what are the rules for GC about
collecting malloc-ed objects? Can I be sure that it does
not collect my vector while the C call or callback who uses
it is still executing?

(I see that I can be sure in this case, because "vec" is used
after the "myfunc2" call, but that is not always the case.)

Best regards,
