I replied to you already: "I had no idea anyone was using it for that purpose. I

Besides, you could still use `try ... catch (Error e)` instead of
`scope(failure)`. After all, the `scope` construct literally is just rewritten
as try...catch or try...finally.

Worst case, you can write a signal handler for any of the signals that can be
generated (not just null pointer signals), and have the handler write all it can
to a file that can be emailed to you.
You can also hook atexit() as maybe your program is exiting that way.
