Removing contracts, is this this code (printing "Hello World!"):

import std.stdio;
pragma(mangle,"_D2tt4mainFZ3fooUZv")
void foo(){
    writeln("Hello World!");
}
void main(){
    static extern(C) void foo();
    { foo(); }
}

Not without explicitly adding that ";".

?

The point here was to illustrate what the two possible interpretations 
are in terms of code that is compatible with current D. The syntax for 
body-less function declarations with contracts proposed in pull 3611 [1] 
does not require a ';' to be present.

The interpretation you are complaining about is in fact the standard 
interpretation without option 3, but with contracts on function 
declarations.
