static if and version are not attributes. But actually, I didn't know 
that it works with version as well. Seems to also work with a debug 
condition according to grammar.

What's weird is that it doesn't work in a function, but I guess those 
are considered a different part of the grammar.  In any case, I probably 
will not be using it. But I did a double take when I saw it...
