I don't care about "maybe" working. Since the array is hidden inside a class I can control who and how it is used and deal with the race conditions.
You could use __gshared instead of shared. It means put it in non-tls storage, just like shared, but the compiler will not attempt to help you use it correctly; you're on your own for synchronization, etc.
What I want is to be able to use Array so I don't have to rely on the GC.
But, again, built-in slices do NOT rely on the GC. Only specific methods on them do and you can use your own implementation for them.
