Also take a look at the `c` array. The handling of arithmetic
overflows is a safety problem of the D language design. Certain
types of input may cause overflows, which result in producing
bogus data as a result of running your program and are very
difficult to troubleshoot. The use of the GDC's `-ftrapv`
option surely helps in troubleshooting such cases, but some
software or D libraries may intentionally rely on the D's
arithmetic wraparound feature.
`CheckedInt` should be another solution for overflows, if you
really need it to throw exceptions, on overflow errors.
