'naked' keyword

What I am asking here may make useless the "naked" attribute, in such case please ignore what I have said here.

The problem is, the 'naked' keyword remove the prologue and epilogue, which set up the stack frame, i.e. allocates space for variables. So any D code used in a naked function must A) either not use any stack space, a tricky proposition, or B) wait until a bit of assembly does the prologue itself.
