Most basic nothrow, pure, @safe functions?

The reasons it's not nothrow is because because dup causes 
postblit, and postblit could throw.

Of course, by that same token, postblit could be unsafe and 
impure. It's terribly inconsistent.

Which is another big problem of druntime: Mostly everything in it 
is done at run-time using typeid, so there is no static inference.
