Threre should be a cast to Foo: Foo g = cast(Foo)f.clone(). The code
works well for me (WinXP, D 0.160).

Do you get access violation or AssertError? If it's AssertError, you
might forget to put 'return' in a function that requirs a value to be
returned (int main(...){return 0;}?). D doesn't warn about missing
returns at compile time.
