Mangled symbols ending with Z?

DMD outputs quite a few symbols that end with a Z. For example:
module test;
class Foo {}
Gives me these three symbols (all .data)
00013680 D _D4test4Foo16__initZ
000136e0 D _D4test4Foo16__vtblZ
00013690 D _D4test4Foo17__ClassZ
I have two questions:
1. I know what __init and __vtbl are, but what is __Class?
2. What does the Z at the end mean? The D ABI page doesn't describe this
in its grammar, and indeed std.demangle is unable to demangle these
symbols. It expects a type there, and Z represents no type.
Once I know this, I will fix std.demangle so that it can parse these.
