The Julia GC extension code has now been merged into Julia master, meaning that it is available in Julia nightly builds (and also should be in Julia 1.1, once that gets released).
This now makes it possible to add a Travis job which tests the Julia GC integration in GAP.
Moreover, the Julia integration int the build system was rewritten to make use of
julia-config.jl
to obtain the correct compiler & linker flags.
