Bug 14383 – [ddoc] documented unittests don't work for module declaration

Sometimes it's useful to have an introductory example for a module, but documented unittest currently don't work for that. cat > mod.d << CODE /** My Module */ module mod; /// unittest { auto example = "usage"; } CODE dmd -D -c -o- mod Should produce the same output as this. cat > mod.d << CODE /** My Module ---- auto example = "usage"; ---- */ module mod; CODE

Just hit this problem as well while documenting std.allocator, and found this as I was submitting.

I got sick of waiting for somebody to fix this, so I did it myself: https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/dmd/pull/5465
