I don't thins that this is good example. The bug is actually 
about that `static if` doesn't work with forward declaration:
```d
void func(S s) {}

version (WORKING)
     struct S {}
else static if (true)
     struct S {}
```
This fails with `Error: undefined identifier 'S'` and passes with 
`dmd -version=WORKING`.

Anyway this can be fixed.
