Was that an internal D GC bug or was it something you could fix 
with addRoot function calls in your code?

I've had the latter myself - indeed it was a fun time. In my case 
I was passing a pointer to an object through a self-pipe. While 
the object sat in the kernel buffer, after write(), but before 
read(), the GC reaped it. Yikes.
