I have some problem calling an Objective-C runtime function when I 
compile with dmd, it works with gdc. DMD version v1.041

I first have the function declaration like this:
module bindings;

extern (C) id objc_msgSend (id self, SEL op, ...);



Then a wrapper like this:

module objc;
import bindings;

alias objc_object* id;


struct objc_object
{
     Class isa;
	
     R msgSend (R = id, ARGS...) (SEL op, ARGS args)
     {
         return (cast(R function (id, SEL, 
ARGS))&bindings.objc_msgSend)(this, op, args);
     }
}



Then I use the function like this:

void main ()
{
     id cls = objc_getClass("NSAutoreleasePool");
     id o = cls.msgSend(sel_registerName("alloc"));
}

And I get the following error during runtime:

Trace/BPT trap

If I don't cast the objc_msgSend function or move the msgSend function 
outside the struct it works. (The function has to be casted to work in 
some cases).
