           Summary: Thread.getThis() broken?
           Product: D
           Version: 2.019
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2

Thread.getThis throws an exception and prints "didn't find it" on the command
line.

It appears that Thread.thread_init isn't getting called as it should during
gc_init. Only when I explicitly call Thread.thread_init in my main procedure,
does Thread.getThis return a valid object.

This sample program should repro the issue:

import std.thread;

void main() {
  Thread.getThis();
}

(Compiled with -debug -g -O -inline flags.)
