Ah, I missed that. Thanks for telling me. I changed nogcDel now 
to null out the deallocated object:

void nogcDel(T)(ref T obj)
{
    import core.stdc.stdlib : free;

    // calls obj's destructor
    destroy(obj);

    // free memory occupied by object
    free(cast(void*)obj);

    obj = null;
}

And now I also get the dearly missed protection violation ;-).
