Perhaps; I'm not sure.  The `pureMalloc` implementation is a lot 
of clever hackery anyway, so I think it would be best to just 
implement stack-allocated dynamic arrays (i.e. 
https://issues.dlang.org/show_bug.cgi?id=18788) and avoid the 
games.  That would have solved the immediate need I had for 
converting runtime hooks to templates, and would help some of 
that work move forward.
