Under current behavior, baz is @system by default, but that will
change to @safe with this DIP. If both baz and foo are annotated
with either @safe or @system, then the program (excluding the
UTs) compiles without errors. The problem is that the behavior of
foo changes if baz is marked @safe rather than @system. You might
argue that this is a bug, but it wasn't a bug originally. Your
approach would have turned a bug-free program into a buggy one.
