Weird, identifiers like "Цвет" and "張" and even "ℝ" all work fine, but
"⅀" doesn't work. Maybe it's a bug?

This works for me:

	import std.stdio;
	real плюс(real a, real b) { return a+b; }
	void main() {
		writeln(плюс(1.61803, 3.14159));
		writeln(1.61803.плюс(3.14159));
	}

Both writeln's print 4.75962. Are you sure you saved your source file in
UTF-8 format?
