          Issue ID: 14597
           Summary: TraceHandler should be @nogc
           Product: D
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P1
         Component: druntime
          Assignee: nobody at puremagic.com
          Reporter: code at dawg.eu

A lot of exceptions in the GC and some in the runtime depend on a non
allocating throw mechanism, because of reentrant and init order problems.
We need to change TraceHandler to @nogc and fix the implementations.
For backwards compatibility TraceHandlers that allocate should be allowed, but
a dedicated boolean flag should suppress traces in situations where it would
cause a problem.
