I think there may also be something wrong with NRVO (Named Return Value  
Optimization). Many of my projects just ended up with broken features  
until I downgraded to DMD 0.177. I was able to find a workaround for one  
of the things it broke by using an inout parameter instead of returning a  
struct, but other things were too broken in that project so I still had to  
downgrade DMD. I don't have reproducable examples, it took me long enough  
just to track down and confirm that one issue with the workaround.
