          Issue ID: 14842
           Summary: [REG 2.068-b2] approxEqual does not work with integers
           Product: D
           Version: D2
          Hardware: x86_64
                OS: FreeBSD
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P1

This works with dmd2.067.1 but with 2.068-b2 I get the errors shown below.


Test code:
---
void main() {

    int a = 10;
    assert(approxEqual(10, a));

}
---
