so no way to anchor the whole object tree by assigning it to
__gshared root? sure, this will never make it into mainline.
__gshared is a little sketchy. We can have TLS GC by default by
piping `new shared` to a shared GC. It's even safer, because then
we have the type system helping out.
e.g. shared MyObj g_obj1;
Thread 1: g_obj1 = new shared MyObj;
Thread 2: g_obj1.obj2 = new shared MyObj;
Thread 3: write(g_obj1.obj2); <-- success!
