Dmd generate an error where it did not before (~2.032) and as far as I
understand the language where it should not.

dmd version: 2.055
OS Linux 

Here is the piece of code:
________________________________________________________________
#!/usr/bin/rdmd

import  std.datetime;

alias bool delegate (  )                       predicate;

predicate wait_for_seconds( immutable uint seconds = 0 ){ 
    immutable long start = SysTime.stdTime; 
    return delegate (){ return seconds==0 ? true : ( (SysTime.stdTime - start)
< seconds*10_000_000L ); }; 
}

void main( string [] args ){
}
______________________________________________________________
here is what compiler tells:
./tst.d(8): Error: 'this' is only defined in non-static member functions, not
__dgliteral1
