Description Andrei Alexandrescu 2010-07-09 20:20:39 UTC 
Example brought up by Sean Kelly in private correspondence:

struct S1{ ~this() { writeln("dtor"); } }
void main() {
    auto a = S1();
    auto b = new S1();
    delete b;
    auto c  = new S1();
    c = null;
    GC.collect();
}

"dtor" is only printed twice.
