Done now:

---

alias alias_t = alias; // this is needed because if a declaration 
starts with alias
it is thought to be the old style of alias declaration.
//Which is ambiguous ... sigh.

alias_t[] makeAliasArray(alias[] array ...)
{
     return array;
}

pragma(msg, makeAliasArray(int, ulong, void)); // outputs [(int), 
(ulong), (void)]

For anyone interested the parser change was actually much more 
trivial than I would have thought.

type is a type expression

+                e = new AST.TypeExp(loc, t);
+                break;

             check(TOK.dot, t.toChars());
