You should not have to, and this is a problem with D that somehow 
needs to be solved. For example, there should be a versioned 
language specification that documents all changes to the language 
that can be mapped to any given compiler implementation. I don't 
know how we'll ever get the language properly documented and 
revised, but it's needed badly.

Now I'm left wondering if 2.062 allows multiple alias this or 
not, so to find out I have to read through git and newsgroups, or 
try it out, or ask ...
