The D convention is to append a `_` to the identifier. From
https://dlang.org/dstyle.html:

	If a name would conflict with a keyword, and it is desirable to
	use the keyword rather than pick a different name, a single
	underscore ‘_’ should be appended to it. Names should not be
	capitalized differently in order to avoid conflicting with
	keywords.
