its extremely unclear what your trying to do my best geuss:

```d
int func1()=>3;
int func2()=>4;

mixin template makenewfunction(alias F,int reference){
    int newfunction(int i:reference)(){
        return F()*100;
}}

mixin makenewfunction!(func1,2);
mixin makenewfunction!(func2,1);

import std;
void main(){
    newfunction!1.writeln;
    newfunction!2.writeln;
}
```

contexts airnt quite the same as unreachable, but you will need 
to have a bunch of tricks to disambiguate in practice
