Hello,
Today I came across a strange bug while using D with `dmd`. I
have still not been able to figure out under what conditions
does it happen but it seems to be a DMD related bug to me.
Here is a reproducible snippet of the code
[...]
Could be there's some restriction in DMD on number of
arguments.
May I ask if this was just an experiment? I hope you're not
having code like that in the wild 🙏
Possible, but I think I have had code with more arguments than
this and it has worked 😅
Unfortunately, not an experiment. Although have replaced the
types so seems silly now, this is part of my constructor for a
huge co-coordinator class that takes too many configurable
start time parameters and so need to pass these many arguments.

Regarding the too many configurable parameters, the general
advice is to group all of the params into a `struct` and pass
that instead as argument to constructor
Pretty wild bug though, definitely a backend thing
