switch off GC?

Right. For example, return from function of a dynamic array will not
work correctly without GC - there will be a memory leak.

My wishlist also contains -nogc (or may be -gc?) too. But it seems to me
it will not occur - too many parts of language mean presence GC.

I just would like that D could substitute C++ completely in all
applications...
