Nick ran into this problem and ended up writing an article on it:
https://www.semitwist.com/articles/article/view/don-t-use-arrays-as-stacks
And, of course, if you haven't read Steven's article on arrays, you should
read that:
http://www.dsource.org/projects/dcollections/wiki/ArrayArticle
In fact, we really should get Steven's article up on dlang.org. It's one of
those articles that _every_ D programmer should read.
