I didn't mean to imply anything was wrong with bud--I use it alot-- Bud is a
great tool btw. I have made a local customization to compile only one file at a
time which gets me past this ticket's issue (for a short while).

I ventured into the depths of phobos to see what the code is doing to handle
SIGSEGV. process.d is simply calling the kernel's system call and returning the
result.
