Nobody seems to have noticed yet, but yesterday I removed the restriction
preventing import declarations from being used in functions. These now work:
void test1()
{
import std.c.stdio;
printf("hello world\n");
}
void test2()
{
static import std.c.stdio;
std.c.stdio.printf("hello world\n");
}

I believe this can lead to better encapsulation of code, especially when using
mixins, versioning and other conditional compilation constructs.
