--- Comment #1 from Wyatt <wyatt.epp at gmail.com> ---
An NG post reminded me of this, so I just tested it on 2.067.1 and the output
is rather different:

wyatt at Yue ~/tmp/d $ rdmd ./issue10223.d
bar
Segmentation fault
wyatt at Yue ~/tmp/d $ 

Okay, so it compiles now, but still doesn't work.  We don't get nice things on
Linux, so I tried it on my Windows workstation over lunch and found it's just
been turned from a disappointment at compile time to a knife in the back at
runtime:
