No way to disable type info(like in most C++ compilers you can
disable RTTI)? I get that GC might want it, but if I disable GC
why would I want type info?
It's used for casts and other language/library features depending
on typeid.
There's also the standard Object virtual methods: toString (used
e.g. when passing objects to writeln), toHash, opEquals, opCmp
(used in associative arrays, array sorting).
