I don't think this is a diagnostic bug, it's a problem where the compiler
rewrites the call to:

void main() {
    import std.math;
    auto f = (double a, double b) => .std.math.pow(a, b);
}

This is why you get a "undefined identifier std" message.

Using the .dot won't work here because the import is function-local.
