A simple solution is to not use -release for the final version of the code, but this keeps array bound controls too.
LDC may have already solved your problem, with extra compilation arguments that you can use to disable such controls independently from each other.
It's not a fault of design by contract, it's just that the D compiler switches are lumped together. It seems a simple to solve problem.
