Bug 16952 – REG: rdmd --eval='writeln();' keeps failing at almost every release, needs a test

it seems to break at every release, probably a symptom there's a test missing: dmd --version DMD64 D Compiler v2.072.1 rdmd '--eval=writeln();' Error: module cstream is in file 'std/cstream.d' which cannot be read dmd --version DMD64 D Compiler v2.071.2 rdmd '--eval=writeln();' Error: module syserror is in file 'std/syserror.d' which cannot be read and also earlier versions: https://issues.dlang.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15175 rdmd --loop and --eval now complain about std.stream deprecation warnings https://issues.dlang.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13288 rdmd --eval fails because it still imports std.metastrings https://issues.dlang.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10352 Regression (2.063): --eval is broken in RDMD

Regarding the issue that this stuff comes up again and again: We do have a test in rdmd_test.d [1], and it does catch this. I think the problem is that the auto-tester doesn't run rdmd_test.

filed https://issues.dlang.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16953: auto-tester doesn't run rdmd_test (causes a number of regressions in each release)

TravisCI now runs the testsuite on every day.
