010, etc., will now be errors. They will not be 10 decimal.
Also, the literals 00, 01, ..., 07 will still be accepted without complaint. 08,
09, etc. will of course be errors.
That feels pretty inconsistent.
It is inconsistent. One of the interesting things about "good" user interface
design is it is awfully inconsistent.
The thing is, I ran into a bunch of D code that used 01, 03, etc. They weren't
octal, and it seemed a pity to break it.
