           Summary: Incorrect duplicate error messagae when trying to create
                    instance of interface
           Product: D
           Version: 0.174
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows
            Status: NEW
          Keywords: diagnostic
          Severity: minor
          Priority: P3
         Component: DMD
        AssignedTo: bugzilla at digitalmars.com
        ReportedBy: deewiant at gmail.com


interface D
{
    void foo();
}

void main() {
        D d = new D();
}

The above code errors out with:

asdf.d(7): Error: cannot create instance of interface D
asdf.d(7): Error: cannot create instance of abstract class D

Huh? Abstract class? That's an interface, not an abstract class. The first
error message is expected, the second is both incorrect and superfluous.
