I've looked into the Linux failures. They are caused by a
deterministic (i.e. I can reproduce it every time) null
dereference the this pointer in defaultWorkUnitSize(). It
appears that DMD is somehow expecting TaskPool's this pointer to
live in the RDI register. I think, though I'm not sure, that it
should be in RAX. I <b>highly</b> doubt this is a
std.parallelism bug.<br>

As far as the FreeBSD failures, I had seen that failure once
before (pre-2.053 release) but couldn't reproduce it for the life
of me to understand it. I tried about 1,000 times on your FreeBSD
box by executing the unit tests in a loop. I also stress tested
std.parallelism on my Windows box through about 1,000 unittest
runs, on Linux in 64 mode through about 10,000 runs and Linux 32
through about 5,000 runs. All of these passed. Since I couldn't
for the life of me reproduce this issue on any other OS, it was
insanely hard to reproduce on FreeBSD, the FreeBSD port wasn't
exactly mature, and I had no idea what else to do, I gave up and
assumed it was <b>probably</b> a bug in some FreeBSD-specific
code. I've added a message to the relevant assert statement so if
this assert is tripped again, we'll be able to figure out why. <br>

<pre wrap="">Not sure that these changes below actually caused the problem, but several runs of std/parallelism have failed:
freebsd 32
linux 32/64, twice
The first linux 64/64 run with these changes passed, as did the rest. The second linux 64/64 run was mangled due to the
makefiles MODULE changes (fixed so we'll get more data for the next run).
Given that std/parallelism hasn't had a long history of success, I'm more inclined to blame it, but not heavily so.
