My bad. I haven't point version dmd. It is 2.072.0. But I get 
same issue using 2.073.1, but instead 
`/usr/include/dlang/dmd/std/typecons.d:6097` I'm ended up in 
`/usr/include/dlang/dmd/std/typecons.d:6408`.

One more. Am I ended up in typecons because on of arguments of 
function `generateAutocompleteTrees` is template?
