There's no dynamic checking needed; you just need to include the #[deny(managed_heap_memory)] attribute in the crate file. (There's also a way to do the same thing with a command-line flag.) This will result in a compile-time failure if any code might use garbage collection (including code in external libraries that's called by your code).
