Hmph, that is puzzling. I understand that the operation about
(1) finding all the objects that are still reachable and send them
into a newly created pack, and
(2) among the objects that were previously in the packs, eject
those that weren't made into the new pack with the previous
point.
Where did I get it wrong? If all the reachable ones are dealt with
with the first point, what is leftover is not reachable, no?
