--- struct S { int i; } extern(C) int main() { S[2] s = [S(1),S(2)]; void[] v = cast(void[])s; S[] p = cast(S[])v; // cast of void[] to S[] triggers __ArrayCast template function return 0; } --- /dlang/dmd/linux/bin64/../../src/druntime/import/object.d:4847: error: undefined reference to '_D4core8internal6string17TempStringNoAlloc3getMFNaNbNiNjNfZAa' __ArrayCast is a templated function that drags in TempStringNoAlloc.get which isn't available in betterC. The example is silly but casts from void[] happen a lot in allocator code.
