Custom callbacks assume that untraced pointers always point to valid, not freed objects. They must make sure that upon callback completion no UntracedMembers point to an unreachable object. This may not hold true if a custom callback for an old object operates with a reference to a young object that was freed on a minor collection cycle. To maintain the mentioned invariant, the CL calls custom callbacks for old objects on every minor collection cycle. The alternative options could be: 1) Replacing all UntracedMembers with WeakMembers, since WeakMember supports tracing and the barrier. 2) Emitting the generational barrier for UntracedMember + tracing UntracedMember on minor collection cycles. The first option requires changing multiple use sites and can bring some performance regression. The second option requires changing the GC logic and the semantics of UntracedMember.
