+ * call-seq:
+ * ObjectSpace.reachable_objects_from(obj) -> array or nil
+ *
+ * [MRI specific feature] Return all reachable objects from `obj'.
+ *
+ * This method returns all reachable objects from `obj'.
+ * If `obj' has references two or more references to same object `x',
+ * them returned array only include one `x' object.
+ * If `obj' is non-markable (non-heap management) object such as
+ * true, false, nil, symbols and Fixnums (and Flonum) them it simply
+ * returns nil.
+ *
+ * With this method, you can find memory leaks.
+ *
+ * This method is not expected to work except C Ruby.
+ *
+ * Example:
+ * ObjectSpace.reachable_objects_from(['a', 'b', 'c'])
+ * #=> [Array, 'a', 'b', 'c']
+ *
+ * ObjectSpace.reachable_objects_from(['a', 'a', 'a'])
+ * #=> [Array, 'a', 'a', 'a'] # all 'a' strings have different object id
+ *
+ * ObjectSpace.reachable_objects_from([v = 'a', v, v])
+ * #=> [Array, 'a']
+ *
+ * ObjectSpace.reachable_objects_from(1)
+ * #=> nil # 1 is not markable (heap managed) object
+ *
+ * Limitation: Current implementation can't acquire internal objects.
+ * This means that you can't acquire complete object graph
+ * (heap snapshot). This is future work.
