Terminating threads has always been iffy in D. As a simple workaround, use a threadpool to keep a set of threads around blocking on a semaphore (and consuming no resources), and rewrite your problem in terms of tasks (void delegate()). I'm sorry you had such a bad experience with this. There really should be a list of common D pitfalls, and "Don't ever destroy threads" should be among the top ten.
