nix: Disable GC during coroutine when bdwgc < 8.4

Browse source 
This re-enables support for older bwdgc versions without complicating
the code too much.
Coroutines generally only interfere with GC during source filtering,
so it's not too bad of a regression on older bdwgc.
This seems preferable over conditional compilation to enable the patch
etc; we've already spent a lot of complexity budget on this GC-coroutine
interaction...
