For this input:

---
module main;
alias int myInt;
myInt x;
--- 

The JSON output is:

---
{
"name" : "main",
"kind" : "module",
"file" : "main.d",
"members" : [
{
"name" : "myInt",
"kind" : "alias",
"type" : "int",
"line" : 5}
,{
"name" : "x",
"kind" : "variable",
"type" : "int",
"line" : 7}
]
}
--- 

But the last one should be:

---
{
"name" : "x",
"kind" : "variable",
"type" : "myInt",
"line" : 7}
---

That is, aliases should not be forgotten. This is especially important for
binding libraries where aliases are heavily used.
