The DLL contains code which is dynamically loaded into your program's address
space, so the boundaries indicated by you should not exist.
I cannot think of a reason why you shouldn't be able to directly expose the
GC-interface to C. (As D provides full C-interoperability)

Just out of curiosity, what is your use case?
