Is it possible to modify GC (without rebuilding the

heap for allocations?
sure. you don't need to rebuild the compiler, only druntime.
Any better solution? Like overriding GC class, etc.
You can install your own GC proxy, see module gc.proxy in
druntime, the struct Proxy and functions gc_getProxy,
gc_setProxy. No need to recompile druntime.
Here's an example where I install my own GC proxy to do all
allocations in my arena:
