A wrong D2 program:

void main() {
    int x1 = 10;
    auto y1 = x1 ^^ 5;
}


It gives a correct error message:
test.d(3): Error: must import std.math to use ^^ operator

------------------------

But adding a second power it gives a wrong error message (dmd 2.060alpha):

void main() {
    int x1 = 10;
    auto y1 = x1 ^^ 5;
    double x2 = 10.5;
    auto y2 = x2 ^^ 5;
}


test.d(3): Error: must import std.math to use ^^ operator
test.d(5): Error: undefined identifier 'std'


Here I'd like the second power to give an error message similar to the first
one.

------------------------

Something similar happens if you import pow, this time for both powers:


import std.math: pow;
void main() {
    int x1 = 10;
    auto y1 = x1 ^^ 5;
    double x2 = 10.5;
    auto y2 = x2 ^^ 5;
}


test.d(4): Error: undefined identifier 'std'
test.d(6): Error: undefined identifier 'std'
