Hi all-
I was testing some programs out with Valgrind, when I decided to try to
check a D program I had. I was a little surprised to discover that there were a couple of issues detected - and more so to learn that all four of them were in druntime. It's only 360 bytes total, but I feel like it should be possible to fix them.
Unfortunately, I have never really looked at druntime's source before, so I haven't gotten very far with my searching. I found that one of these issues has already been submitted, but there's no news since October of 2011:

What is the procedure I should follow for this? Mark it as confirmed and add the other three valgrind cases?
Thank you,
-Matt

I am not sure, but druntime is not expected to have no issues in valgrind.

I'm happy to merge any fix for these issues, there also was one recently.

Yes, please post any useful information in Bugzilla.
