struct foo;
foo function() bar;

Thanks to a typo, something like this has been compiling in Derelict 3, and
really shouldn't have been, on every version of DMD 2.x to date. With 2.061, it
causes an error on Linux 32 and on 64-bit when compiling with -m32. No error
with the 32-bit version on Windows (haven't tested 64) and I have no idea about
Mac.

Furthermore, the error message being put out points to the opaque struct
declaration itself and not the site of the error. That made it more difficult
to track down than it could have been, given that the declarations were in
different files.
