Oh, if you mean the asm function, then yes, maybe, but that is 
besides the point. I created the asm function to deal with the 
original direct call not working that is calling the interface 
that is extern(C++). I don't remember if the params were 
backwards or not but it too crashes. It maybe not have anything 
to do with the params or whatever but something is totally fried 
in D.

If I simply mark the asm function extern C++ it is even worse.
