The following program tries to trivially run a function from the GSL. It
compiles, but generates a segmentation fault when run.


gsltest.d
--------------------------
import std.stdio;

extern (C) double gsl_sf_hyperg_2F1(double a, double b, double c,
double x);

void main() {
  double f = 0.0025;
  auto ret = f * gsl_sf_hyperg_2F1(1.0, 10.0, 11.0, 1.0 - f /
0.025);
  writeln(ret);
}
---------------------------

The program should return 0.015681, which is the
numerically correct result. Note that the bug can not be in the GSL itself, as
it works correctly when used with C or C++.

To compile and run the code, I used the following command line:

rdmd -L-L/opt/local/lib -L-lgsl -L-lgslcblas gsltest.d
(assuming that gel libraries are in /opt/local/lib)

This seems to be a bug related to how C library functions are called from D.
