Both.

(A silly workaround is the following, but I do not know if this has been 
documented since it has been discovered:


    void func(T)(T data) {
        void subfunc1()() {
            process(data);
            if (recurse) subfunc2(); // Ok.
        }

        void subfunc2() {
            process(data);
            if (recurse) subfunc1(); // Ok.
        }

        subfunc1();
    }
