Wow, that page is hugely improved since last time I looked (quite a
while ago, TBH). Cheers to all who contributed!
One thing I'm still unclear on though (maybe someone in-the-know could
add this info?): Last I looked at DMD's semantic code, there was a lot
of stuff about "deferred" semantics. What's all that stuff about? It
sounds like some sort of inverse of what the Wiki describes about
handling forward references, but I don't know anything about it.
