Destructor nonsense on dlang.org

Hi,

http://dlang.org/class.html#Destructor

"The garbage collector is not guaranteed to run the destructor for all 
unreferenced objects."

What the *hell*? So resources are allowed to arbitrarily leak and the 
programmer has to actually expect this to happen?

I really, really hope that this is a documentation error or early design 
decision that has since been rectified but with lack of documentation 
updates.
