D also have some problems with voldemort types. As can be seen in a 
discussion in the main newsgroup, it's not possible to declare a 
function pointer which returns by reference.

ref int function () bar;

test.d(8): Error: variable test.bar only parameters or foreach 
declarations can be ref

Then if we try place "ref" after "function" we get another error.

int function ref () bar;

test.d(8): found 'ref' when expecting '('
test.d(8): basic type expected, not (
test.d(8): function declaration without return type. (Note that 
constructors are always named 'this')
test.d(8): found 'bar' when expecting ')'
test.d(8): no identifier for declarator int function(int())
