How can I properly import functions from gcx in object.di?

I'm working on the precise gc patches. I now have a bunch of
templates and all the other infrastructure, but what's holding me
back is that I don't quite understand the .di files.
In order for user-defined datastructures to instantiate the
correct templates, the template code needs to live (/be imported
into) the object.di file. However, for any kind of efficiency,
the templates also need to be able to directly call functions
and/or access the state from src/gc/gcx.d. I cannot just import
it, because it won't be available during (user code) compilation.
What is the correct approach?
Currently, I'm leaning on creating a new public gc.di (or
similar), with functions to scan ranges and single pointers, and
add implementations of those to the gcx side. Is this the correct
way forward?
