Array/collection of templated class

I'm working on a project of mine, and I came across this little problem. Now, it may well
be that the solution is staring me in the face, but I just can't seem to come up with a
feasible solution to this: I can't have an array of a templated class.
To illustrate:
########## foo.d
# class Foo (T) {
# public this (T a_value) { p_value = a_value; }
#
# public T value () { return p_value; }
# private T p_value;
# }
#
# void main () {
# Foo[] arr;
# }
This will give the error:
foo.d(9): class foo.Foo(T) is used as a type
Now, granted, I expected this. But I'm at a loss as to what to do. Sure, if I had a way
of knowing the signatures of the template instances I could just use "Object[]"
decleration and a cast() expression on the lookup, but this is for a system where I
usually won't know.
Ideas?
