Consider the following code: try { functionCall(); } catch (a + b).c(); This should match the LastCatch rule because (a + b).c() falls under the category of NoScopeNonEmptyStatement, but dmd's parser only checks the opening paren after the 'catch' token and tries going for the Catch rule.

I've tried to fix this in D-Scanner, and so far I haven't figured out a way to eliminate the ambiguity. I support implementing issue 12558 and removing the LastCatch rule from the language entirely.
