I'd be interested in hearing from others who have used valgrind with 
gdc.  It found issues immediately...  But it left me scratching my head. 
  It seems like code that should work doesn't in subtle ways.  For 
example, I opened a bug with the gdc project for my simplest example:
https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=791252&aid=1734477&group_id=154306

In the original code that drove me to experiment with this, the bug was 
reproducible on many platforms with gdc and never with dmd.  I only 
tested with valgrind on a single system, so I don't know if the valgrind 
insanity applies to other platforms.  I'd like to know if others have 
had similar issues.
