I see that you used a constructor to initialize everything. Won't that 
be enough to know that tlv_get_addr is correctly initialized? No D code 
will be able to run before that, as far as I understand.

On OS X tlv_initializer will be called by _dyld_initializer which is 
called by libSystem, if I understand the source code of dyld correctly. 
This doesn't happen on iOS?
