     foreach(TypeInfo typeInfo; _arguments) {
       typeInfo.print();

int main(char[][] args) {
   auto foo = new Foo(1, 2, 3);
   assert(foo.args == 3);
   return 0;
}

I compile with GDC 0.17, om Mac OS X 10.4.4.

The output is:
TypeInfo[]
int

int

So it seams that the hidden variable _arguments is included in itself 
for constructors.

So then it is a GDC specific (or perhaps even OS X specific) bug, I 
better repost it in D.gnu for safe measure.
