I forgot to mention:
If you're on Windows compilation defaults to 32 bit, false
pointers can be a problem with D's current GC in 32 bit
applications. This isn't an issue for the sample application
though, since you're not putting random numbers in the allocated
arrays.
64 bit doesn't suffer from this. There's also a GSoC project
underway, aimed at improving the GC. I'm not sure what the exact
goals are, but IIRC work on making the GC precise is being done,
which would eliminate the false pointer issue.
