--- Comment #1 from Dennis <dkorpel at live.nl> ---
S.init is `null`, which you dereference by accessing a member. `@safe` does not
prevent `null` dereferences, since those only abort the program, they don't
corrupt memory. The code is essentially doing this:

```
auto s = (cast(S)null).str;
```

Changing this to an enhancement.
