Alright, well i added this to src/phobos/internal/gc.d and rebuilt phobos.lib.

extern (C) void gc_destroy(){ _gc.Dtor(); }


And added gc_destroy() to the unload section of DllMain.


Looks like it solved the problem somewhat - it only leaks 100kb now when the DLL 
reloads instead of 1.5mb. That 100kb could easily be the fault of my program 
too; i'm not sure atm.


Should i file a bug report about this or what? Its possible gc_term()'s behavior 
has been the same ever since the start.

I'm using DMD2.02 if i haven't mentioned it already.
