What is the point of D_Version2

[Derek Parnell]

Okay, I just don't get it.

This code below doesn't compile in V1 dmd.

version(D_Version2)
{
    alias const(wchar)[] wstring;
    alias const(dchar)[] dstring;
}
else
{
    alias char[] string;
    alias wchar[] wstring;
    alias dchar[] dstring;
}


I can understand why - because the first two alias declarations have
invalid V1 syntax - but doesn't that make the whole D_Version2 thing
pointless?
