If you compile without -betterC, it'll work, but if you examine
the result you'll find that the mxnTest function is still
compiled into the result. D makes it so convenient to use
functions at compile-time that there's no clear distinction for
functions that should only exist at compile-time.
Make mxnTest a template:
```d
string mxnTest()(string strVar1, string strVar2) {
^^
```
I tried what you suggested, and with no other changes it compiled
and ran correctly.
Thanks!
I just find it surprising that your suggestion worked, but the
(slightly simpler) earlier version did not.
