This happened in real code due to a mishap where I've accidentally removed the
name of a function in a function call.

.\test.d:

module test;
import bar.barmod;

void main()
{
    (FALSE);  // used to be Foo(FALSE);
}
void Foo(BOOL) { }

.\bar\barmod.d:

module bar.barmod;

alias int BOOL;
enum : BOOL {
    FALSE = 0,
    TRUE  = 1
}

$ dmd test.d -I.
bar\barmod.d(5): Error: long has no effect in expression (0)

In my case it pointed the error to the WinAPI library, that was a real WTF
moment and it took me a while before I spotted where the syntax error really
was.
