A nothrow function will refuse an explicit call to "throw Error":

nothrow void foo()
{
    assert(1, "Some error");
    assert(0, "Some error");
}
//This is fine

nothrow void bar()
{
    throw new Error("Some error");
}
//This is NOT fine
Error: object.Error is thrown but not caught
Error: function main.bar 'bar' is nothrow yet may throw

nothrow void baz()
{
    try
    {
        throw new Error("Some error");
    }
    catch(Exception)
    {
    }
}
//This works though (!)
//Obviously, the "Error" is not caught...
