• Consider the formula (1 - infinity*i) * i which should
produce (infinity + i). However, if instead the second factor
is (0 + i) rather than just i, the result is (infinity +
NaN*i), a spurious NaN was generated.
• A distinct imaginary type preserves the sign of 0, necessary
for calculations involving branch cuts.
Is this stuff no longer an issue?

I believe D used to have builtin complex types, back in the old
days. They have been removed (deprecated?) and replaced by the
library type std.complex.
At least that is my understanding.
