You are testing out the new UFCS, right? Well, I really really
hope that
I will be embarrassed by saying this: That feature has been
DOA! :p
So many people celebrated the feature on the D.announce
newsgroup. I've
pointed out a number of times that I couldn't get even the
simplest test.
And there is a unittest that tests the feature but nope... It
just
doesn't work. :(

Ok, now I see how I fooled myself. Posts like the following
made me think that UFCS has been implemented even for ints:

I made a further mistake and parsed the unittest in the
following change as using an 'int'. Obviously I was wrong: it
is the string literal "1":

Basically, I was following Andrei's book, where this feature is
described. It's a pity, that it's not working (except arrays
somehow) :( - I need it!
