Giving code to a D newbie such person didn't know what this error message
means:


foo.d(3): Error: module ascii is in file 'std/ascii.d' which cannot
be read
import path[0] = /usr/include/d
import path[1] = /usr/include/d/druntime/import


The problem was simple, he has used dmd 2.053 instead of the successive one, so
std.ascii was not present yet. This error message is not clear enough.

In a similar situation Python2 gives:
ImportError: No module named foo

I suggest an error message like:

foo.d(3): Error: module "std.ascii" not found (file 'std/ascii.d').
