It's not speculation. There's no guessing involved. It's what I've understood the rules of the language to be. But I asked on dmd-internals to verify it, and Walter has stated that it just so happens that the destructors, scope statements, and finally blocks do currently get run for non-Exception exceptions, but it's not guaranteed: http://forum.dlang.org/post/4f5ae8ec.4040...@digitalmars.com - Jonathan M Davis
