http://dlang.org/phobos/std_concurrency.html#.spawnLinked
According to documentation: Executes the supplied function in a
new
context represented by Tid. This new context is linked to the
calling
context so that if either it or the calling context terminates a
LinkTerminated message will be sent to the other, causing a
LinkTerminated exception to be thrown on receive(). The owner
relationship from spawn() is preserved as well, so if the link
between
threads is broken, owner termination will still result in an
OwnerTerminated exception to be thrown on receive().

Thanks. I tried using it, but it is giving me problems in the
sense that:
1) If the worker sends a message, and then dies, the
"LinkTerminated" message is sometimes not caught by the owner.
2) When the worker needs to die its natural death, it is creating
some LinkTerminated errors :/
Gotta keep tinkering.

The following chapter may be helpful as well:
http://ddili.org/ders/d.en/concurrency.html
Especially the following sections:
- Exceptions during the execution of the worker
- Detecting thread termination
- Receiving exceptions as messages

TY. Gonna read everything.
