I have this code, which worked fine in  dmd 2.058:

private GC gc;

private alias gc.malloc  bson_malloc_func;
private alias gc.realloc  bson_realloc_func;
private alias gc.free      bson_free_func;

With dmd 2.060 I get this error when I compile:
Db/Bson.d(96): Error: variable Db.Bson.gc initializer required 
for type GC

Am I doing something wrong?

This is happening because the GC type in core.memory now has  disable 
this(); in it, which disables its default constructor.

You're not supposed to instantiate it; it is effectively a static struct.
