Fixing Issue 1829

[Orvid King via Digitalmars-d]

A little over 4 months ago, I submitted a PR 
(https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/dmd/pull/3483) to DMD to fix 
this very old issue, which did at first have minor issues with it that 
were promptly fixed. The PR itself has never actually been reviewed, 
even though I've tried on a couple of occasions to get more eyes on it. 
It's for this reason that I write this to ask, would anyone be willing 
to review this PR fixing an ancient issue?
