Why does nobody seem to think that `null` is a serious problem in D?

D is more similar to Java here and works like languages with 
reference types - Java, C#, Python, Ruby, JavaScript. Also AFAIK 
in C++ objects are garbage-created by default, so you would have 
a similar problem there. To diagnose crashes on linux you can run 
your program under gdb.
