> C# and Java have safe finalizers.

According to the few pages I googled for C# finalizers, this is not true.  You
are not supposed to access/attempt to destroy GC managed resources.  In fact,
C# doesn't even allow manual deletion of such resources.  The only purpose of
finalizers is to clean up non-GC resources.

After reading those pages, it looks like C# is almost identical in the
restrictions and guarantees as D is.
