This also forces GC implementations to aware of each other. Not 
normally an issue but GC traditionally includes many extern(C) 
functions with common names which will need to be always 
implemented so that all GC implementations are supported.

At the same time I don't see what real benefit such runtime 
options brings to the table. This is why in my PR garbage 
collector is currently chosen during compilation time.
