According to spec "function(parameters) => expression" is not valid.

   http://dlang.org/expression.html

Lambda:
     Identifier => AssignExpression
     ParameterAttributes => AssignExpression

Neither of those allow 'function' or 'delegate' keyword. However, I 
agree with Timon Gehr that the spec should be changed to match the 
current behavior.
