 Hey guys I wanted to discuss my first major depressing experience with D 
 in a reallife project.
 
 First off here is the according bug report : 
 http://d.puremagic.com/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=4951
 
 I have to mention that it was by far not the first bug i encountered in 
 D but it has never been such a PITA. I spent hours and hours of 
 searching, rewriting and crawling my code for the cause of this issue. 


Huh? I can understand when compiler really stays in you way. That's pig bita.
But... phobos? Yes, phobos doesn't work, so what? If something doesn't work,
you just roll your own code, right? And trust me, socket is not an AI, one can
easily boot it in a day or two of lazy coding.
I'm working with .net 3.5 and we *do* write our own utils because .net
functionality is not sufficient: type converters, home-grown inheritance,
dataset serializers. And, think, it's .net!

maybe it was not clear in the first shot, if it is an phobos or dmd 
problem...combined with threading...
