The pull request could have a hard time getting past Walter's
veto. The PR, if I understand it correctly, undermines some of
what Walter argued was essential in 1028, universality and ease
of use accomplished by defaulting unsafe libraries to @safe
silently.
Here's hoping 1), 2) or the PR save the day.
