Btw, what is the motive behind D's GC not being able to correctly handle
GC allocations in class destructors.
Is it by design or because of limitations in D's current GC implementation?
And how does this relate to exception-throwing destructors in other
managed languages such as C# and Go; are they forbidden or allowed and
safe thanks to a more resilient GC?
It is a frustrating rough edge, esp for non-experts; I cut myself when I
tried to use a custom logging function (which of course GC allocates) in
class destructors.
