The language just needs to provide the required features to be able to do it. Some kind of unsafe mechanism and more control how the GC works.

Oberon's GC is written in Oberon:

Module SYSTEM is like Rust's unsafe {}.

Singularity and Midori GC's were written in their C# dialects.

With luck C# 7 onwards will get all the nice features from Sing# and System C#, as per Joe Duffy's blog.

Then using C# will be no different than Modula-3, in terms of features for systems programming.
