But CTFE is full of code that expects to have a GC running,

Even the following code runs out of memory on my machine:
int foo(){
foreach(i;0..100000000){}
return 2;
}
pragma(msg, foo());
I.e. incrementing the loop counter consumes memory.
Using x64 build of DMD this code will compile but consumes about
9 GB of RAM.
So this is really not optimal.
