In D1 it is allowed to write

  writefln();

In D2 it is no more. This problem exists for more than year now, after writefln
is actually template. Disallowing writefln without parameters (as above) makes
porting D1 software really a pain (one need to change writefln(); to
writeln()), and is inconsistant (propgramer always need to remember which
function to use, and makes edditing annoying).

Thanks.
