And this is definitely not just theoretical. Any conservative collector must also be non-moving. The Boehm GC for C and C++ and Apple's GC for Objective-C are both existing examples.

IIRC Go's GC is also non-moving for now (or has that changed in a recent version? I believe it was still non-moving around 1.5)
