             nThis:


(Set version to 1.012, as 1.013 isn't in the list yet.)

type x;
mixin("alias int type;");

All of alias, typedef, enum, struct, class, and a template containing any of
the above don't work.

Flip the order of the two lines or replace the mixin with its contents and the
code compiles.
