Technically, it is a problem with FooWrapper. Regardless of whether RefCounted's behavior, by default, structs in D are freely copyable and movable value types. The compiler can do those things as it sees fit.

Since FooWrapper owns a resource, it must also define the post-blit to make a copy of Foo.

(As an aside, dmd at git head does not make such a copy.)

Thanks, that's indeed an oversight on my part. Still, I think there's something strange going on.

The problem is that the FooWrapper destructor is called twice, one time with a garbage foo pointer. The example prints:
Destroying Foo 40CED748
Destroying Foo 4002DFF0
There is only one Foo instance created. A null pointer would make sense, but where's that second pointer coming from?
