This is drilling down on the issue of why multi-stage lookup tables of new std.uni ahve decent speed in LDC and painstakingly slow in DMD.

Observe that the following snippet (inlined opIndex of a Trie) does 2
remarkably stupid things:
a) See that read/write of arg_0 on stack, instead of direct "mov edx, ebx"
b) 2 push eax at the begining of function ... and "add esp, 8" at end - WAT?
Note that eax is never written to until the very end (there is simply no need
to save it).

And the D code where the above object code can be seen: //Command line: dmd -O -release -inline -noboundscheck

import std.uni, std.stdio;

//match bits that std.regex had before
alias codepointSetTrie!(13, 8) makeTrie;

void main(string argv[])
{
    auto tr = makeTrie(unicode.Alphabetic);
    int count;
    foreach(arg; argv)
    foreach(dchar ch; arg)
        if(tr[ch])
            count++;
    writeln(count);
}

Should be var_8, of course.
