This code

import std.stdio;

void main()
{
    01.writeln();
}

results in this set of errors:

q.d(5): Error: found 'writeln' when expecting ';' following statement
q.d(5): Error: expression expected, not ')'
q.d(5): Error: found ';' when expecting ')'
q.d(6): Error: found '}' when expecting ';' following statement
q.d(7): Error: found 'EOF' when expecting '}' following compound statement

whereas of it's an illegal numeric literal such as 08.writeln(), you get

q.d(5): Error: found '8' when expecting ';' following statement

Numeric literals which do not begin with zero do not have this problem. I
assume that it relates to how (the now deprecated) octal literals are handled.
