--- Comment #11 from FeepingCreature <default_357-line@yahoo.de> ---
Istm a possible approach would be:

 * Define SimpleMonitor : Monitor with nothrow

 * change DMD to use nothrow when locking SimpleMonitors

 * subclass druntime's Mutex with SimpleMutex : Mutex, SimpleMonitor

 * use SimpleMutex as the mutex implementation for class monitors

Then synchronized(this) should be nothrow without breaking existing code that depends on Mutex/Monitor. It would only break if you were assigning to _monitor, and that's easily fixed by using a separate member.

I don't know how to implement this on the DMD side though.
