The (signed and unsigned) integer wrap around is well-defined in 
D, and is architecture independent. That means for example that 
if a specific architecture does not have a subtract instruction 
that wraps around according to what D specifies, then the 
compiler will generate the necessary instructions such that still 
int.min - 1 == int.max. That's similar to how integer 
multiplication 'just works' on architectures that do not have a 
multiply instruction.
