Oh man! Almost! It worked for about 3 minutes! I thought I was 
going to get somewhere! It got me with the stack frame bug.

I'm having a bigger problem though, not sure I think this is 
always been a problem with visual D.

I can't see any outer variables in the debug windows. It seems 
lambda's and inner functions and global scope is never shown 
while in those scopes! This makes it very hard to debug them 
because one can't see the outside variables. One has to make a 
sort of local copy.

e.g.,

int x = 3; // Won't be seen while in foo

void foo()
{
    // BP stopped here, can't see x in debug watches unless we do 
the following:
    int tmpx = x;
}

Best I can tell is that the stack frame bug occurs much less. 
Maybe 1/10th of the time(before it was every few seconds, now 
it's every minute maybe(although it might get worse after it gets 
worse).
