      We need a stronger No_GC_Verifier since the current one only detects that a GC occurred, not whether it's possible for a GC to occur.

      I think the logic would have to be something like counting the number
      of times we do a safepoint check and seeing if that number changes
      while the No_GC_Verifier is on the stack. It would also have to take
      into account whether the GC_locker was active or not to determine
      whether even that even if a safepoint occurred it would have been
      suppressed. It would also have to determine if you transitioned to or
      were in native thread state.
