On GCC if you want a safer compilation you add things like -Wall -Wextra, etc.

In D the default is better to be safe (just like you add -release to remove 
some safeties), so with flow analysis activated. If someone needs a faster but 
less safe compilation, then such person may add a flag to disable flow 
analysis, like -noflow.
