I don't know much about finalization of Weak constructs, but maybe an
alternative. I assume you have something like..
startProcess
[ "do stuff" ] fork.
so how about...
startProcess
[ [
"do stuff"
myProcess = nil.
] whileFalse ] fork.

That's a clever way to do it ... only it doesn't work :-(
My current understanding is that "self" in the block refers to the
original instance where "myProcess" is still assigned. "self" in
#finalize is the "executor" object which is (by default) a #shallowCopy
of the object where ivar are nil.
I currently have the feeling I'm missing something. Finalization
shouldn't be that hard ... or may I'm simply spoiled comming from a
Dolphin Smalltalk background :-)
Thanks for your help,
