Bug 11759 – Poor error message trying to use lowercase L in literal suffix.

ulong x = 123ul; ul.d(1): Error: semicolon expected, not 'l' ul.d(1): Error: no identifier for declarator l D, unlike C/C++, requires uppercase L for the suffix. I think this will be a common enough mistake, and easy/unambiguous to detect, so I believe it deserves a better error message. Something along the lines of "Error: uppercase L required for long integer suffix".

https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/dmd/pull/2979 https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/dlang.org/pull/448 "D language spec" should not allow 'l' suffix, but compiler implementation can parse it for the particular use case.
