It isn't.  Could be a function called string, which is being called with
argument (*a), and the function returned from that call then called with an
empty argument list.

D grammar aims to be unambiguous.  Removing C-style casts has already been a
step in the right direction.  Removing C-style function pointer declarations
would be another.
