There are some parts of D (like AA) that allocate memory from the GC but
for which it would be hard to impossible for the programmer to tell when
to deallocate. If you use these features while the GC is off, you will leak
memory untill you turn it back on (at that point the GC will clean it up).
In some short lived programs this is no problem.
