See if that helps.  On my system, your code now results in your expected
output.

If the compiler optimizes well enough the output given could be valid (it might construct the struct directly where it belongs). This needs some investigation. Anyways, is druntime the correct place to fix this? If it _is_ a bug, isn't it a compiler bug and not a bug in druntime? After a quick glimpse over your patch I
think the output will never be just "done" now.

The patch is still necessary in cases where the value being appended is not a temporary. For example, if in the OP's code the test variable was used after appending it to the array.

Michel Fortin also brought up the point in a comment on the pull request. But the reality is, druntime cannot do any better without help from the compiler (the runtime needs to be told when to refrain from running a postblit). It's a separate bug.

However, I think there is nothing invalid with doing both the postblit and the destructor on the temporary. So at least the code is correctly calling the postblit.
