What about floating point and char types? Their .init values
are not all zeros in D spec. (I don't think this matters in my
case but still.)
That's why all you have to do, in order not to have recent LDC
emit the struct's init symbol, is to initialize these members
manually with zeros:
struct S { double[elementCount] a = 0; }
void foo() { S s; } // compiler does a memset
`= void` for members doesn't work and, I dare say, not work
anytime soon if ever.
