Hallo Walter,

could you please tell us how a vtbl of an D object looks like?
Object's vtbl has 6 elements
I would assume:
this()
void print()
char[] toString()
uint toHash()
int opCmp(Object o)
int opEquals(Object o)

If that's correct why do you have a special pointer to the destructor?
What does the init value, inside ClassInfo, do?

obj2asm yields pretty good info on this <g>. But the vtbl[] is pretty
simple - the first entry is the address of the classinfo, and the rest are
the virtual functions, in order.

It doesn't.

 What does the init value, inside ClassInfo, do?

Provides the .init property value for the class object, which is the default
initialization for each of the members.
