How do I persuade partial to tie itself to the appropriate
overload?

As far as I can see std.functional.partial only does one
argument at a time.
bars=partial!(partial!(partial!(slurpBars!BarType, filename),
startDate), endDate);
or maybe, I'm not sure, but maybe you can do:
bars=partial!(slurpBars!BarType, AliasSeq!(filename,
startDate, endDate));
If you find you really need to manually mess with overloads,
use http://dlang.org/traits.html#getOverloads. You may have
to wrap it in AliasSeq in some situations due to
grammar/parser constraints.
fwiw - still doesn't work (whether I use alias or auto, trying
each of your solutions). I'll look at getOverloads.
How do I distinguish between two overloads that return the same
type but have different arguments? It looks like getOverloads
only deals with cases where the return type is different,
judging by the docs.
getOverloads should give you all the overloads of a function,
whether they return the same or different types. The example in
the docs just happens to have different types.
In general, return types are not considered when talking about
overloads. For example, two functions that take the same
arguments but have different return types are not overloaded,
they are in conflict.
