Sorry, I skimmed through the issues quickly. Given the sparsity 
of info in the logs, I would be caughtious in assuming the 
program internal state.
I can recommend trying to compile an easy to use instruction for 
"callgrind" trace generation (there is a good page on dlang wiki 
about it), wich, given a debug build of a program, should give 
you an insight about what's happening.

I don't think there's much use of statically analyzing a source 
code, you should try to extract more runtime info from the issue 
reporters.
