The current AA implementation is quite buggy. It works, but there are all 
kinds of corner cases which it doesn't handle properly. Part of the problem 
was that its implementation was shifted from the compiler to druntime, and it 
was done fairly poorly. A redesign is underway (none of which should affect its 
usage other than fixing bugs, since it should be entirely an implementation 
matter, not API), but it hasn't been completed yet.
