Lionello Lunesu did a lot of work both on improving VRP, and on
bug 259:
https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/dmd/pull/1913
He pretty much gave up after being ignored for well over a year.
I started porting his work to DDMD back in October.:
https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/dmd/pull/5229
I also have an actual fix for issue #259 on my hard drive; I
haven't submitted it yet because I need PR 5229 accepted first,
and also because there is one other big VRP related improvement
that is needed, too.
My work is stalled now, just like Lionello's, because:
1) DMD 14835 blocks any meaningful VRP improvements, and
2) No one will do a serious review of my work, either - even
though PR 5229 is fairly small and straightforward.
Bug 259 could be fixed pretty quickly if it were actually a
priority for the core compiler dev team. As it is, it may never
get fixed...
