My parser accepts the following:

I wasn't really aware that this was illegal in DMD. (Other function
attributes, such as pure, are accepted.)
In fact, even the following is disallowed:
int foo(int)ref{}
Should I file an enhancement request?
Except that ref isn't a function attribute.
Yes it is.
int x;
ref{
int foo(){ return x;}
}
pragma(msg, typeof(&foo()));
It's an attribute on the return type.
There is no such thing. Types cannot have attributes.
So, it doesn't make sense for it to be on the right. That would be
like having the const on the right-hand side of a member function apply to
the return type rather than the function itself.

You have it backwards.
