regarding libgc this was discussed upstream [0] and maybe will happen in
the future [1]:

"I still believe bundling customized gc is The Right Thing (the
library *is* designed to be so!) instead of bending the code to
use system-wide gc, but I certainly understand the needs to share
gc, so I'll work on it after 0.9.4 release."
