Even e.g. SBCL which is an AOT lisp runs into the issue if you share the C stack (needed for FFI) with the lisp control stack. On targets with few registers (i.e. not SPARC or Power) it uses a conservative GC that pins any memory pointed to on the control stack, and a precise GC for all heap objects.
