I told you this is not going to work. The decision seems to be 
made even when the conversion is still going on. Lets just make 
this into gdc so we can continue the real work. When this is 
ready and working, we may try again.

Unfortunately I am not skilled enough to implement this into the 
compiler so I have to ask somebody else to do it. I will test it 
as soon it is possible.

This has even more importance now because I have understood that 
dmd will disallow read-modify-write access to shared variables. I 
hope this feature is not brought to gdc before volatile is 
working.
