The documentation is not clear. "they will be compiled out" means
"contracts are compiled out". So, an enforce() would disappear if it's
inside such a block, which should not be what the programmer wants for
an enforce().
The documentation was clear as glass (but wrong): "Use assert in
contracts."
Fixed it through the "Improve this page" link on that Phobos page:
https://github.com/dlang/phobos/blob/master/std/exception.d
"Use $(D assert) in contracts." is still in there.
What's wrong with that? What documentation is trying to say is "do not
use enforce in contracts; use assert in contracts" and that's exactly
the idea.
