Well I forget the details, but it's been pointed out before
that D's cast is fundamentally broken.

You get one cast operator that hides the full set of c++
static, dynamic, const & reinterpret casts.
Which one actually happens is a mystery.

Not ideal by any means and really should be addressed before
D2 is called final. Not going to happen though.
