--- Comment #1 from Jens Bauer <jens-bugzilla at gpio.dk> ---
Luckily you just prevented me from pressing "Submit Issue" in filing a
duplicate by approximately 1 second!

Some further thoughts:

In the particular code snippet, my 'Reset_Handler' does not return a value.
Since D specifies that a void is the same as int returning 0, then it would
make sense to completely avoid evaluating functions that return 'void', and
just insert a 0 in the array instead, possibly giving an error or warning.
This would also speed up build time for other functions.

-Thinking a bit further: What if something else was initialized by a list of
functions returning void in an array - that's abusing the functionality and I
do not know if it's possible to do so.
