Bug 1901 – Structs with alias template params not accepted as types in declarations

A parse error, apparently: struct Test(alias test) { void run() { test(); } } struct Something(char[] s) { char[] name () { return s; } } alias Test!({ Stdout("test!").newline; }) test; // fine void main() { Something!(`hello`) thing; // fine test t; // fine Test!({ Stdout("test!").newline; }) z; // fail, error: //plan.d(30): found 'z' when expecting ';' following 'statement' } I was hoping to use this means as a brief way of declaring unit tests in an xUnit-like system (and iterate through them using .tupleof)

Noticed this in 1.025 as well; not sure how old it is.
