You can also add:

at the top, too. It isn't necessary to tediously annotate every
function.

@nogc:

struct Foo {
        int* a() { return new int; }
}

Are you trying to say that you shouldn't be allowed to do that? I get an
error when I actually call x.a().

@nogc:

struct Foo {
        int* a() { return new int; }
}

void main()
{
    Foo x;
    auto y = x.a();
}

That's because main is @nogc. If you did:

void main()
{
    Foo x;
    auto y = x.a();
}

@nogc:

struct Foo {
        int* a() { return new int; }
}

it would work. Adam's point is that putting @nogc: at the top doesn't 
mark everything @nogc.
