This currently works; `foo` is `@safe` and prints the value of `gshared`. Changing the call in main to `foo(gshared)` errors.

Should it work, and can I expect it to keep working?

According to the manual it shouldn't work at all https://dlang.org/spec/function.html#function-safety where it says Safe Functions: "Cannot access __gshared variables.", I don't know why calling as `foo()` works.
