If it's just about functions then you can check identity (the address
obtained via the alias will be the same). That will also work for
other non-tls objects. It won't work for tls objects because the
compiler will (incorrectly) reject the equality check at CT.
Because of D's implicit TLS in module and static scopes, a lot of
objects will unintentionally be made thread local, so this solution
won't be practical until the compiler limitation goes away, yes.
