Maybe add the reasons why this is only done when a guardian is created?
E.g.,

/* Don't use unordered finalization when not using guardians,
    because Java finalization prevents fast collection of chains of
unreachable objects */

Not 100% about the exact purpose of avoiding Java-style finalization,
you might want to adjust the wording somewhat ...

Greetings,
Maxime
