           Summary: Persistent segfaults in templated code
           Product: D
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: blocker
          Priority: P2
         Component: DMD
        AssignedTo: bugzilla at digitalmars.com
        ReportedBy: andrei at metalanguage.com


The compiler segfaults for any single mistake inside certain template code. 

import std.typecons;

Tuple!(Types) foo(Types...)(string a)
{
    typeof(return) result;
    mistake;
    return result;
}

void main()
{
    auto a = foo!(int, double)("a");
}

The compiler's answer is:

Segmentation fault

The 2.x compiler is next to unusable for writing template code at this time.
Please go back in time last week and fix this bug.
