Good read, but many of the problems don't apply to D ;)

The problem is that it'll probably be like using alloca, which doesn't 
get cleaned up until after the function exits. Using it within a loop is 
bound to cause a stack overflow. I wonder if there's something we can do 
to 'fix' alloca in that respect.
