How did you do it? __traits(compiles) is the best I could
find, and that breaks down if you are friends (easy to
happen with mixins, even if the code is in a separate file)
and is kinda fragile in general since it will swallow unrelated
errors too.
I did it by having all the inspection routines in a private template inside a
struct in another module.
