Yeah. I had seen this. It's not well thought-out.

GC doesn't need to be the only mechanism or even the majority mechanism,
but it needs to be part of the portfolio, and it's been shown repeatedly
that it can't be done in a library. If nothing else, accurate GC support
imposes constraints on the optimizer and code generator.
