Ah, I suspected so. (At a point in D's history writeln() did do a flush; people wanted to eliminate it for efficiency reasons.)

We could introduce a flush() with throw in std.stdiobase.

As in a module destructor? Isn't it better to let the error pass silently rather than throwing an exception that can't be caught?
