GC does not delete subclass

My understanding of scope is that the object is supposed to be forcefully 
deleted at the end of the scope (not through the GC).  So in your case, I 
believe there is a bug, because delete should call the destructor 
immediately.  i.e.:

{
    scope C = new C;
}

should be equivalent to:

{
   auto C = new C;
   delete C;
}

So I believe that the GC shouldn't be calling the destructor in fullcollect, 
it should be called BEFORE fullcollect is called.

Of course, I may be misunderstanding how scope works :)

With regards to my response, I just wanted to point out to Jason that 
destructors should not be used as he was alluding to.
