If it's just about functions then you can check identity (the address obtained via the alias will be the same). That will also work for other non-tls objects. It won't work for tls objects because the compiler will (incorrectly) reject the equality check at CT. Because of D's implicit TLS in module and static scopes, a lot of objects will unintentionally be made thread local, so this solution won't be practical until the compiler limitation goes away, yes. artur
