Hi, I was working on a grammar with Pegged and dmd crashed. I reduced it to:

class ZeroOrMore(Expr)
{
    enum name = "ZeroOrMore!("~Expr.name~")";
}
class Range(char begin, char end)
{
    enum name = "Range!("~begin~","~end~")";
}
mixin(q{
    class RubySource : ZeroOrMore!(DecLiteral)
    {
    }
    class DecLiteral : Range!('0','9')
    {
    }
});
void main() {
}

I get this error, followed by dmd crashing:

dmd_crash.d(13): Error: class dmd_crash.DecLiteral is forward referenced when
looking for 'name'

If RubySource and DecLiteral are entered normally (not as a string mixin), then
the code compiles.


I tried reducing it a bit more:

class ZeroOrMore(Expr)
{
    enum name = "ZeroOrMore!("~Expr.name~")";
}
mixin(q{
    alias ZeroOrMore!(DecLiteral) foo;

    class DecLiteral
    {
        enum name = "Range!("~begin~","~end~")";
    }
});
void main() {
}

However, then I get a *large* number of errors:

dmd_crash.d(32): Error: class dmd_crash.DecLiteral is forward referenced when
looking for 'name'
dmd_crash.d(32): Error: class dmd_crash.DecLiteral is forward referenced when
looking for 'opDot'
dmd_crash.d(32): Error: class dmd_crash.DecLiteral is forward referenced when
looking for 'opDispatch'
dmd_crash.d(32): Error: class dmd_crash.DecLiteral is forward referenced when
looking for 'ame'
dmd_crash.d(32): Error: class dmd_crash.DecLiteral is forward referenced when
looking for 'nme'
dmd_crash.d(32): Error: class dmd_crash.DecLiteral is forward referenced when
looking for 'nae'
dmd_crash.d(32): Error: class dmd_crash.DecLiteral is forward referenced when
looking for 'nam'
dmd_crash.d(32): Error: class dmd_crash.DecLiteral is forward referenced when
looking for 'anme'
...

For thousands of lines. I waited a little while, then killed dmd. Both of these
examples are valid code, right?
