Compile this code

///////////////////
struct S
{
    union
    {
        ubyte a;
        int x;
    }
    void[] arr;
}

int foo() @safe
{
    S s1 = S();
    S s2;
    return 0;
}
////////////////////

with "dmd -c test.d" fails with

test.d(14): Error: variable test.foo.s2 unions containing pointers are not
allowed in @safe functions

Please note that the first variable s1 is ok!

This is also triggered in std.format with this code:
import std.format;
import std.array;

void foo()
{
    FormatSpec!char spec = FormatSpec!char();
    auto s = appender!string;
    formattedWrite(s, "%s", "hello");
}
