I do not thing relying on users not to do anything that crashes is a good
solution at all.

I think you found the problem:

As you said We are NULLifying already removed objects for which if there was a
__gc it would have being called.

We *do* need a __gc but not for freeing the resources (that's taken care
elsewhere) but to remove the reference to the boxed object from the outstanding
objects queue.
