Yes, though the compiler could actually error on the return 
statement for `ghi` (because a @trusted function must have a safe 
interface).

That would be consistent with erroring when returning a local 
variable as `ref`:

```d
@trusted ref int h() {
     int i;
     return i; // Error: returning `i` escapes a reference to 
local variable `i`
}
```
