Thanks! Is there is information about how GC set flags for `new` on the site?
I think it's something like this: The compiler lowers `new T[]` to _d_newarrayT or _d_newarrayiT [1]. These functions get a TypeInfo as a parameter. The actual TypeInfo object is generated by the compiler [2]. __arrayAlloc (called by _d_newarray*) then sets BlkAttr.NO_SCAN depending on what's in TypeInfo.flags. [3]
