That's my initially thought, but then I realized this could be a 
D bug, or a feature request.

Yes, I know there are work-around, but for my usage:

all these work-around are too heavy, a verbatim typedef in my 
question is the most succinct way to be used.

Sigh, looks like it's not supported at this time, guess I have to 
write more `static if`s.
