Currently calling write() on a Tid prints:
Tid(std.concurrency.MessageBox)

In earlier versions this used to be:
Tid

In either case, this isn't much information. I think it would be useful if
toString was overloaded and returned a string with some sort of unique thread
ID, e.g.:

writeln(spawn(&test));  // Tid(0x0001)

This could make it easier to debug some types of threading problems without
having to use a debugger.
