Description

We need to reserve vtable slot -1 and insert the C++ typeinfo when generating extern(C++) classes.

I would really like this as well. To be able to inspect the dynamic type in the debugger.

This applies to all platforms. Seems to be a problem with LDC as well.

I think this is actually a severe issue and should be fixed urgently.
It tends to crash debuggers instantly.
