Not necassarily. But it would be a Phobos bug if the allocation cycle is completely located within Phobos and the possibilty of such a cycle is not mentioned in the docs. An analog argument holds for every templated "library", that uses templates out of phobos. But how can one know, whther the extension of phobos with a self generated template builds a finite or semi-finite allocation-loop or execution-loop? -manfred
