As discussed here: https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/phobos/pull/1260

Declaring a destructor in a struct triggers the creation of an opAssign. It shouldn't.

Note that it doesn't create a postblit (which is correct):

//--------
struct S
{
  ~this(){}
}
void main()
{
    S s;
    s.opAssign(s);  //OK, should fail.
    s.__postblit(); //Correctly fails.
}
//--------

The reason an opAssign is generated if a destructor is present is because assignment can no longer just copy over the data. The destructor must be run, and the generated opAssign ensures that. The generated opAssign looks like:

  S tmp = this;   // bit copy
  this = s;       // bit copy
  tmp.dtor();

OK. it is sane behavior, and my fix was not correct.
But, if so, current dmd generates wrong code for struct S.

I filed new issue for the problem.
Issue 9994 - Built-in generated opAssign should call dtor on assignment
