          Issue ID: 21675
           Summary: Unsafe aggregate field initializer causes undefined
                    behavior in @safe code
           Product: D
           Version: D2
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P1
         Component: dmd

As of DMD 2.095.0, the following program compiles and exhibits undefined behavior at runtime:

---
struct S
{
    int* p = cast(int*) 0xDEADBEEF;
}

@safe void main()
{
    S s;
    int n = *s.p;
}
---

To prevent this, the compiler must either forbid default initialization of types with unsafe `.init` values, or enforce that all default initializers are safe values. [1]
