709	Pmc2c should generate mark and destroy VTABLES	whiteknight	cotto	"Pending discussion today in #ps: 
{{{
<Whiteknight> Propose adding a PObj flag ""PObj_uses_malloc_attrs_FLAG"" to automatically deallocate Parrot_*_attribute structures in the GC. Thoughts?
<chromatic> Alternative: smarten Pmc2C such that it automatically generates mark() and destroy() VTABLEs as necessary.
<allison> prefer chromatic's solution
}}}

Pmc2c.pl should be smart enough to:
 - automatically generate a mark() vtable to mark all STRING and PMC attrs, unless the user has specifically provided one, and
 - automatically generate a destroy() vtable to deallocate the Parrot_*_attributes structure, unless the user has already provided one.

There are lots of good reasons to do this.
