Greetings<div><br></div><div>Here is a small piece of code that uses atomicLoad on a shared data, and behaves strange. Any clues whether this is a problem with atomicLoad(druntime) or with the DMD itself. I see the problem with the 2.060 release as well as with the github&#39;s current snapshot.</div>

<div><br></div><div>When I compile and run the code on my 64bit Ubuntu 12.10 machine, it prints out </div><div><div>42</div><div>4294967296</div></div><div><br></div><div>Now, if I comment out the constructor of the Foo struct (which anyway I am not using), I get the right result that is </div>

<div>42</div><div>42</div><div><br></div><div>Any clues?</div><div><br></div><div>Regards</div><div>- Puneet</div><div><br></div><div><div>import core.atomic;</div><div><br></div><div>struct Foo {</div><div>  public ulong _s = 0;</div>
