That was actually the original approach that I took, but removing `gc` from 
`processes` manually breaks some invariants in the code -- for example, 
`process::wait(gc)` is a no-op if `gc` has been removed from `processes`, which 
makes it a bit tricky to wait for `gc` to terminate. I think the approach in 
this RR is safer.
