I'm writing a collection with functionality for membership checking. I thought
it would be nice to use the "in" operator. In the docs for std.collections I
surmise that this is the standard way to go. From the source code, I see
there's no special opIn, but that it can be done with the more general...

bool opBinary(string op)(T k) if (op == "in") {
...
}

Here T is, of course, a compile-time argument of the surrounding struct or 
class.

So ... this is used in the the Phobos source in the DMD 2.052 distro (if I'm
not mistaken), but I can't get dmd 2.052 to accept it? I keep getting the error
message "Error: rvalue of in expression must be an associative array, not
Foo!(uint)".

I guess either that this is a recent feature -- I didn't see it mentioned in
Andrei's book -- and that my Phobos source is too recent for my dmd ... or that
I'm doing something wrong elsewhere in my code, preventing the operator
overloading to take force. Suggestions/solutions?-)

Didn't even know 'in' can be defined with opBinary...
I use opIn_r ('r' for right side, since the container stand on the right of the expression) everywhere, and it works fine.
